About the author
Born in Fontainebleau on June 19, 1888, Paule Régnier was a French writer whose work included novels and poetry. She is remembered for fiction that explores inner life and emotion with sensitivity rather than spectacle.
Her best-known distinction came in 1934, when she received the Grand prix du roman de l’Académie française. That award placed her among the notable French literary voices of her time and helped secure her place in 20th-century French letters.
Régnier died in Meudon on December 1, 1950. Though she is less widely known today than some of her contemporaries, her writing still appeals to readers interested in reflective, finely observed French literature.
