Biography
French writer. At 15, Radiguet met Jean Cocteau who became his lover and mentor, teaching him the labour of writing and sequestering him so he would complete his work on the novel ‘’Le Diable au Corps.’’ Their love affair was stormy and he declared, ‘’I don’t want to be called Mrs. Cocteau.’’ Obsessed by a life that he felt would be short, he immersed himself on the fast track, embracing social success, flattering friendships and official recognition with the help of his editor, Grasset. Burning himself out on drugs and alcohol, Radiguet died at 20 of typhoid, on 12/12/1923, Paris, and was buried in the Père Lachaise cemetery, leaving behind an unproduced play and a number of essays.
