A prolific French-language Swiss author in the period immediately after World War II, Cendrars is often the subject of Henry Millers' conversations with literary friends. Cendrars loses his left hand, beloved sons, and library to the Nazis and lives in poverty. Ephraim Doners is one of the few people who read everything that Cendrars writes.
