Description

The Life of the Bee by Maurice Maeterlinck

Maurice Maeterlinck, author of ‘The Blue Bird’, winner of the Nobel prize and one of the most popular writers in the world at the turn of the century, learned early in life to love bees. His father’s garden in Belgium was full of them. The drama of the hive fascinated him and, by closely observing the busy lives of its inmates, he created this enchanted book. “Nothing”, wrote Maeterlinck, “is more exciting than a wall behind which something is happening.” With humour and mischief he lures the reader into a world both real and magical, so that his intimate portrait of bee life becomes a drama of epic proportions.
