The Mandarins, Paperback Book

The Mandarins Paperback

Part of the Norton Paperback Fiction series

Paperback

Description

In her most famous novel, Simone de Beauvoir takes an unflinching look at Parisian intellectual society at the end of World War II.

In fictionally depicting the lives of her circle -- Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, Arthur Koestler -- and her passionate love affair with Nelson Algren, de Beauvoir dissects the emotional and philosophical currents of her time.

At once an engrossing drama and an intriguing political tale, The Mandarins is the emotional odyssey of a woman torn between her inner desires and her public life.
