For the next ten years, the two are the closest of friends and confidantes as they explore life in a post-World War One France, and as Andr馥 becomes increasingly reckless and rebellious, edging closer to peril.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSylvie, insightful and observant, sees a France of clashing ideals and religious hypocrisy--and at an early age is determined to form her own opinions. Andr馥, a tempestuous dreamer, is inclined to melodrama and romance. Despite their different natures they rely on each other to safeguard their secrets while entering adulthood in a world that did not pay much attention to the wills and desires of young women.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeemed too intimate to publish during Simone de Beauvoir's life, Inseparable offers fresh insight into the groundbreaking feminist's own coming-of-age; her transformative, tragic friendship with her childhood friend Zaza Lacoin; and how her youthful relationships shaped her philosophy. Sandra Smith's vibrant translation of the novel will be long cherished by de Beauvoir devotees and first-time readers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Simone de Beauvoir\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798200741687\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e HarperCollins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/07\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e CD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.74h x 5.86w x 0.56d","brand":"Simone de Beauvoir","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":43990510600447,"sku":"9798200741687","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_215b605c-ebe4-4203-881d-568591d11678.jpg?v=1683305093","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/inseparable-simone-de-beauvoir-9798200741687","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
