    "General Bramble" by Andre Maurois is a fascinating novel that gives a satirical yet insightful exploration of the military status quo and human nature. It follows the existence and profession of General Bramble, a seasoned military leader whose reports replicate the absurdities and contradictions of warfare. Through the lens of General Bramble's studies, Maurois affords a nuanced commentary at the complexities of military lifestyles, bureaucracy, and the impact of struggle on individuals and society. The novel humorously portrays the General's encounters with fellow officers, subordinates, and political figures, highlighting the regularly farcical nature of military operations and the characters concerned. As General Bramble navigates the demanding situations of command and confronts the cruel realities of combat, he grapples with questions of obligation, honor, and morality. Through his adventure, readers are invited to reflect on the human ability for both heroism and folly inside the face of warfare. Maurois's writing is characterized through its wit, sharp statement, and intensity of insight into the human condition. "General Bramble" stays a timeless traditional, providing readers an idea-scary exploration of war and its impact on individuals and society.

    1929. From the dust jacket. Andre Maurois who wrote so sympathetically of the lives of Disraeli and Shelley (Ariel) has created here a novel of incomparable charm and originality. Atmosphere of Love is a study of a man and the two women he loved. In the opening chapters, Philippe Marcenat narrates his version of his affair with the woman he loved, madly, jealously; in the latter part of the novel the mirror is held up at a different angle and Marcenat's second wife presents her estimate of her husband. By this original device, we have a subtle and a living portrait of the hero. At the same time, it is an analysis, profound and clarifying, of the nature and the course of love and the devastating effect of human jealousy. Virginia Woolf, the author of Orlando says of this novel: It would be difficult to find a fellow to it in English. One cannot bring to mind at the moment any living English writer so intelligent, so dextrous, so accomplished as M. Maurois. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.

    1920. Translated from the French by Thurfrida Wake; Verses translated by Wilfrid Jackson. Whitlock writes in the Introduction about The Silence of Colonel Bramble: Every English officer one met was chuckling over it, and pointing out Old So-and-so in its pages as the original of this or that type. It was a picture not only of the Lennox Highlanders, but of every regimental and brigade mess in the army.
