André Paul Guillaume Gide (1869-1951), known as André Gide, was a renowned French writer. Nobel Prize winner in Literature in 1947 and founder of the prestigious Gallimard Publishing House, André Gide is one of the most prominent figures in French cultural life of this century.

With the experimental novel "The Counterfeiters," written in 1925, André Gide reached the peak of his writing career. It is a novel with a complex and multiple plot, continuously interrupted by reflections from the novelist Edouard. "The Counterfeiters" is currently considered a masterpiece of French literature.
Autoren-Porträt von André Gide
André Paul Guillaume Gide (Paris, November 22, 1869 - Paris, February 19, 1951) was a French writer who received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1947. Hailing from a family of the upper bourgeoisie, he was the founder of the Gallimard Publishing House and the Nouvelle Revue Française magazine. Gide was an openly homosexual man and spoke openly in favor of homosexual rights, having written and published, between 1910 and 1924, a book aimed at combating the homophobic prejudices of his time called "Corydon." Embracing freedom and liberation while rejecting moral and puritanical constraints, his work revolves around the constant pursuit of intellectual honesty: how to be true to oneself, to the extent of embracing one's homosexuality. Among his most important works are "The Fruits of the Earth," "The Vatican Cellars," "The Pastoral Symphony," "The Immoralist," and "The Counterfeiters," in addition to the most controversial of all: "Corydon."
