Résumé :
|
They are one of the world's legendary couples: Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-paul Sartre - those assionate, free-thinking Existentialist philosopher-writers - had a committed but notoriously open union that generated no end of controversy. Through original interviews and access to new primary sources, hazel Rowley protrays them up close we witness de Beauvoir and Sartre with their circle, holding court in Paris cafés. We learn the details of their infamous romantic entanglements with the young Olga Kosakiewiez and others; of thier efforts to protest against the wars in algeria and Vietnam; and of de Beauvoir's tempestuous love affair with nelson algren. We hear the anguished discussions that would lead to Sartre's refusal of the Nobel Prize and listen in on the couple as they comment on each other's great works.
