Henri Barbusse, a French novelist and member of the Communist Party, was born in 1873 to a French father and English mother. He moved to Paris at 16 and later enlisted in the French Army during World War I at age 41. His service lasted 17 months, marked by multiple invalidations due to health issues. Barbusse's experiences in the war profoundly influenced his writing, and he was recognized for his bravery with the Croix de guerre in 1915. His lifelong friendship with Albert Einstein highlights his connections beyond literature.
