"Man's Fate" is their various struggles to transcend "the human condition Publisher's Note Set in Shanghai in 1927, this historical novel dramatizes the incipient stages of the Chinese Revolution and the driving forces behind the men who led it Industry reviews "No other French writer is so rapid, compulsive, fascinating and rewarding a monologuist. As he walks, words and ideas rush from his brain and out of his mouth in extemporaneous creation, as though they were long quotations from books he had not yet written....He could work at his publishing job by day and at his writing more than half the night at home. It was in these circumstances that he wrote 'La Condition Humaine' [a.k.a. 'Man's Fate']."
