Jerome and Jean Tharaud wrote as a single literary entity (J J Tharaud) like the Goncourt brothers before them. They travelled and composed their books together in a seamless pattern, reading each other s initial observations in notebooks, writing first drafts and then working up and editing the texts by turn. They made their name exposing the imperialist agenda behind Rudyard Kipling s writings in the novel, Dingley. The Moroccan trilogy is saluted as the most memorable of all their books. They were both members of the French Academy and were considered part of the Academy of Dissidence opposed to the Vichy regime in the Second World War
