Henry Gréville

Henry Gréville (October 12 1842, Paris - 1902), pen name for Mrs. Alice Durand, born Fleury, was a French writer.

The daughter of a professor, she accompagned her father to St. Petersburg, studied languages and science and married Émile Durand, a French law professor at Petersburg, with whom she returned to France in 1872.

Gréville had already published novels in St. Petersburg journals: "A travers des champs" and "Sonia", and continued her production in France, first with the novels "Dosia" (1876) and "L'Expiation de Savéli" (1876), depicting Russian society.
