		Exploring the depths of a story that has long remained shrouded in mystery, Romain Gary: The Man Who Sold His Shadow is as much a fascinating biographical sketch as it is a thought-provoking reflection on the assumptions made about identities in the public sphere.

	Romain Gary -- Encyclopædia Britannica
		In 1906 the town (named for Elbert H. Gary, chief organizer of the United States Steel Corporation) was laid out as an adjunct of the company's vast new manufacturing complex.
		The site was chosen because it lay on navigable water midway between the iron ore mines to the northwest and the coal mines to the south and was also near the limestone quarries of Michigan.
		The French author Romain Rolland was awarded the Nobel prize for literature in 1915 for his series of novels ‘Jean-Christophe' (ten volumes, published from 1904 to 1912) and for his pamphlet “Above the Battle” (1915).

	Tirvengadum: Linguistic Fingerprints and Literary Fraud
		In the mid-nineteen-seventies, France witnessed one of the most elaborate hoaxes ever to be played on the literary scene when Romain Gary, a well known French author, published a few novels under the name of Émile Ajar.
		The work of Romain Gary provides thus an excellent example for the study of authorship attribution -- which is, itself, the analysis of stylistic traits of an author as an index of authenticity.
		As Romain Gary's literary career spanned nearly thirty years, these four books, all written within a four year period, were chosen to avoid problems associated with change in style over time.

	JOYCE CAROL OATES: ROSAMOND SMITH
		Explaining his motives in the posthumous memoir, Gary claimed he was tired of being "the famous Romain Gary"; he wanted to be someone else.
		Romain Gary, writing as the unknown "Emile Ajar," is no longer writing as Gary, but as Gary-through-"Ajar"; the Danish noblewoman, Baroness Karen Blixen, choosing "Isak Dinesen" ("Isak": one who laughs) as a pseudonym, is writing as Blixen-through-"Isak Dinesen," thereby evoking an ancestral, magisterial, and certainly unfeminine self.
		(Romain Gary compared his "doubling" with "Ajar" in terms of Macpherson's with "Ossian.") When the now-famous Karen Blixen/"Isak Dinesen" published a parablelike novel called The Angelic Avengers in 1944 under the pseudonym "Pierre Andrezel," she arranged for her longtime secretary-companion Clara Svendsen to be named on the title page as the translator.

		Among the many generous gifts—reviews, comments, advice—which Bondy gave literature, was this eliciting from his childhood friend, Romain Gary, of a kind of spoken autobiography.
		But here it’s clear that Bondy, the more reticent of the two, was fascinated by the enigmatic Gary, who fittingly led a multiplicity of public and private lives: aviator, resistant, diplomat and novelist under two names, neither of them his own, each winners of the Prix Goncourt, lover, star and fleeting connoisseur of the great.

		But such was Seberg's influence, esspecially in Europe, that FBI director J. Edgar Hoover considered her a genuine liability, and, in 1970 when she was seven months preganant, issued instructions that Seberg be "neutralised".
		Thus it was that a fake letter was "leaked" to the Hollywood gossip columns, suggesting that the father of the child was not Gary, but a member of the Black Panthers.
		Seberg and Gary were survived by a son, Diego Gary.

		Schoolcraft details Gary’s struggle to evolve as a writer in the eye of a public that now considered him a known quantity.
		Going so far as to recruit a cousin to stand in as the public face of this phantom author—an Algerian immigrant by the name of Emile Ajar—Gary concealed his secret until his violent death in 1980 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

		Held symbolically at the Quai d'Orsay itself, it will honor an outstanding, passionate and unusual man, a free Frenchman in more than one sense, too little known and appreciated, including at the Foreign Ministry, which he joined in 1945, holding the positions of U.N. spokesman and consul general in Los Angeles, among others.
		The idea is to pay tribute to the legendary figure of this writer-diplomat, a man of such complex relations in both the diplomatic world and in writing.
		An exhibition of documents drawn from the Ministry's archives dealing with Romain Gary's career will also be on view at the event.
