# Folio biographies

Folio biographies è una sotto-collana della Folio, collana editoriale di tascabili edita da Gallimard, inaugurata nell'aprile del 2005. Sono agili e piccole biografie inedite dedicate a grandi personaggi della storia, della letteratura, dell'arte, della musica, dello sport e delle scienze internazionali, il cui destino è considerato eccezionale. Ogni volumetto ha un piccolo inserto fotografico di 8 pagine e, in coda, una bibliografia essenziale aggiornata.
