“As fresh as ever. . . . [Memoirs from Beyond the Grave 1768-1800 and Memoirs from Beyond the Grave 1800-1815] speak as much to our times as they did to the nineteenth century.” —David Platzer, The New Criterion
“Chateaubriand’s self-appointed calling was as court historian who held his subject in contempt, ensuring that the truth would out about the monsters who rule the world for a spell. His eloquence won the regard even of his sworn enemy. . . . May he find comparable honor in our time and our place.” —Algis Valiunas, National Review
“The best autobiography ever written . . . . The old viscount could write one hell of a sentence. It’s an incredible book.” —Paul Auster, The Book of Illusions
