Bernard Werber (born September 18, 1961 in Toulouse) is a French science fiction writer active since the 1990s. Werber was born in Toulouse (Haute-Garonne) in a Jewish family on 18 September 1961. Beginning at the age of 14, he wrote stories for a fanzine, an experience which would later be useful in his novels, such as L'Empire des anges (The Empire of the Angels). After leaving school, he became a Scientific journalist in Le Nouvel Observateur and Eurêka, the magazine of the Cité des sciences et de l'industrie in Paris for about a decade.

James Thurber
Born: 8 December 1894 Birthplace: Columbus, Ohio Death: 2 November 1961 (complications from a stroke) Best Known As: Author of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty Thurber\'s witty short stories and lumpy cartoons were a popular mainstay of The New Yorker magazine in the 1930s and 1940s. A Midwestern boy with an urbane twist, Thurber mixed comical reminiscences of his Ohio childhood with wry observations on modern times and the battle of the sexes. (His best-known story is The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, the tale of a henpecked husband who escapes into heroic daydreams.) Thurber\'s funny, loopy, absurdist cartoons featured men, women, dogs and other strange animals. He was by turns hilarious and melancholy, and his darker nature seemed to come out in stories and cartoons about husbands and wives: the wives often domineering and sarcastic, the husbands harried or bitterly triumphant. Like Mark Twain, Thurber became increasingly morose in his last decade, although he continued to write...

Valery Larbaud
Valery Larbaud naît le 29 août 1881 à Vichy et décède dans la même ville le 2 février 1957. Cet écrivain français est fils unique du pharmacien Nicolas Larbaud (cinquante-neuf ans à la naissance de son fils) et d’Isabelle Bureau des Etivaux (trente-huit ans), il n’a que huit ans lorsque son père décède en 1889. Il sera élevé par sa mère et sa tante. Il obtient sa licence ès-lettres en 1908. Dans la même année, Larbaud publie sans faire connaître sa véritable identité « Poèmes par un riche amateur, ou Œuvres françaises de M. Barnabooth». La fortune familiale (son père était propriétaire de la source Vichy Saint-Yorre) lui assure une vie aisée qui lui permet de parcourir l’Europe à grands frais. Il effectue à partir de 1898, de longs voyages en Europe, devenant, à l’image de son héros Barnabooth, un homme « dont l’horizon s’étend bien au-delà de sa ville; qui connaît le monde et sa diversité ». Après avoir publié en 1911 son roman d’adolescence « Fermina Marquez », Larbaud fait paraître...

Benjamin Péret
Benjamin Péret, né le 4 juillet 1899 à Rezé, décédé le 18 septembre 1959 à Paris, fut un écrivain surréaliste avec une « fourchette coupante à cliché ». Il est connu sous plusieurs pseudonymes : Satyremont, Peralda et Peralta. Sa mère fait engager cet adolescent rebelle comme infirmier au cours de la Der des Ders. Il se révèle être un potache doué d'un humour carabin. En 1920, dadaïste adepte du mauvais goût, il participe au procès contre Barrès, propagandiste de la terre, des morts, de la patrie. Péret joue le rôle du «soldat inconnu», revêtu d'une capote de soldat français mais parlant allemand. En 1922, il rencontre Robert Desnos et les surréalistes avec lesquels il se lance dans l'écriture automatique, dont la syntaxe saugrenue de la phrase bouscule les conventions du langage, et notamment les proverbes. Il la leur restitue par le calembour, la contrepèterie, le renversement de l'ordre usuel des mots dans la phrase. Par exemple: « Je me demande un peu : qui trompe-t-on ici ? Ah !...

En septembre 1939, il est mobilisé et fonde une revue Poètes casqués. Dès le début de la guerre (1940), il entre dans la résistance et participe aux publications clandestines (Éditions de minuit, Cahiers de la Libération, etc...). En 1943, avec ses amis François Lachenal, Paul Éluard et Jean Lescure, il rassemble les textes de nombreux poètes résistants : L'Honneur des poètes publiés aux Editions de Minuit.
