His work literally started the Literary Surrealism movement in the early 1920s. Try again, sweetie.

Also should mention Aragon. He's well known in France but not on here. As opposed to the two I listed who got completely memory-holed

They literally reprinted Les Deux Étendards within the last 3 years, and Max Lawton will be translating it (SAD!)

It's really telling that the most popular French authors are a midwit pseudo-philosopher, a pedophile who got filtered by Husserl, a guy with brain damage, a proto-redditor, and a degenerate gooner. Nuke the whole country

French men of letters are vastly superior to American men of letters. Who does America have? Melville and Hawthorne, two faggots fucking each other's butts and sucking off each other's writings? Spare me, Amerilard.

Only ones who can be considered to be amongst the most popular in France are Celine and Voltaire. People like Rousseau, Hugo, Moliere, La Fontaine, Baudelaire and Rimbaud are names every 5th grader knows about.
Not our fault EFLs only tend to focus on writers who help further their agenda of global cultural destruction
