André Maurois (1885-1967) est l'un des écrivains les plus importants et les plus connus de la littérature française. Par des romans fins et délicats, il s'est imposé, marquant de son style tout le monde des lettres. C'est par "Les silences du colonel Bramble" qu'André Maurois devient célèbre. Pour écrire ce premier roman, Maurois s'est inspiré de sa propre expérience d'officier de liaison auprès de l'armée britannique. Créant des figures atypiques et extraordinaires de soldats anglais flegmatiques, sages, philosophes, il rend compte d'une joie de vivre toute anglo-saxonne, et ce malgré la guerre, qui est tout de même le sujet réel et la toile de fond du roman.
