ENGLISH DESCRIPTION An unpublished, very intimate novel by the great French author, an icon for feminism, and winner of the Prix Goncourt.Finalist for the French-American Florence Gould Translation PrizeWritten in 1954, five years after the publication of The Second Sex, Las inseparables / The Inseparables narrates the passionate friendship between Sylvie and Andr e -alter egos of Simone de Beauvoir herself and lisabeth Lacoin (Zaza) -starting when they met at school at nine years old. Andr e is cheerful, intelligent, and daring, and Sylvie, a formal girl who is irremediably attracted by Andr e's overwhelming personality. Together they will learn to rid themselves of society's stifling conventions and expectations, na ve about the tragic price that freedom and intellectual and existential ambition have. A cathartic story for the author, perhaps too revealing to publish during her lifetime. The recovery of this manuscript -along with some photographs and letters that serve as testimony- represents a great literary event.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/8/42/640/947/8426409474_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "19.95", "online_price" : "19.95", "our_price" : "19.95", "club_price" : "19.95", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
