Life 

Born in Tours on 26 September 1892 to a seamstress and shoemaker, Voisin left school to apprentice as a butcher, court clerk, a car painter, and an itinerant worker. After hearing Sébastien Faure speak, he joined him in La Ruche, where he worked as a handyman between 1912 and 1915. He later kept the shop for Faure's periodical, Ce qu’il faut dire. Voisin also supported Louis Lecoin

In the postwar period through 1971, he managed a general food store. He spent the rest of his life traveling, writing poems, and writing his memoirs, despite being nearly blind. He remained a pacifist and anarchist through the end of his life. He died in Paris on 31 January 1981. References
