Author

Maurice Maeterlinck (1862–1949), Belgian playwright and Nobel laureate, wrote in French of death, destiny, and the secret life of ordinary things. The Blue Bird sent children searching for happiness; The Life of the Bee turned natural history into philosophy. His Symbolist dramas made silence and suggestion do the work of plot.
