Maurice Maeterlinch is a Noble Prize winning author from Belgian. He was a poet, playwright and essayist. Maeterlinck writes about the meaning of life and death. His education was at a religious school where only religious material was allowed. This may account for his distaste for the Catholic church and organized religion. In The Life of a Bee Maeterlinch looks at society from the viewpoint of a bee. He explores their complex architecture and the self-sacrifice of a bee for the survival of the community.
