FRANCE-BOOKS-GRACQ
(FILES) - File picture of French author Julien Gracq, taken 28 March 2003 during the inauguration of the restored abbey in Saint-Florent-Le-Vieil. Gracq, whose real name was Louis Poirier, died in hospital near his home in western France at the age of 97, his family said, 23 December 2007. His first book "Au chateau d'Argol" (The Castle of Argol), published in 1938, was favourably reviewed by the Surrealist leader Andre Breton, who became a friend and a strong influence. President Nicolas Sarkozy saluted Gracq's memory, describing him as "one of the greatest French writers of the 20th century, who far from the worlds of fashion and society built up a system of original thought and a powerful body of work."
