Troyat was born Lev Aslanovich Tarasov Russian: Л е в А с л а н о в и ч Т а р а с о в Lev Aslanovich Tarasov in Moscow to parents of mixed heritage including Armenian Russian German and Georgian. According to his autobiography he states that his surname is Armenian Torossian while his maternal grandmother was German and his maternal grandfather was of mixed Georgian and Armenian descent. His family fled Russia in anticipation of revolution. After a long exodus taking them to the Caucasus on to Crimea and later by sea to Istanbul and then Venice the family finally settled in Paris in 1920 where young Troyat was schooled and later earned a law degree. The stirring and tragic events of this flight across half Europe are vividly recounted by Troyat in Tant que la terre durera. Troyat received his first literary award Le prix du roman populaire at the age of twenty-four and by twenty-seven he was awarded the Prix Goncourt. He published more than 100 books novels and biographies among them those of Anton Chekhov Catherine the Great Rasputin Fyodor Dostoyevsky Ivan the Terrible and Leo Tolstoy. Troyat's best-known work is La neige en deuil which was adapted as an English-language film in 1956 under the title The Mountain. Troyat was elected as a member of the Académie française in 1959. At the time of his death he was the longest-serving member. Simon and Schuster hardcover
