«La femme rompue» is a collection of three short stories by Simone de Beauvoir, published by Folio in paperback (256 pages, in French).
The work brings together three stories featuring women going through personal crises in middle age: the first follows the monologue of a wife who discovers her husband's infidelity, while the other two portray loneliness, disillusionment and the difficulty of sustaining one's own identity within traditional female roles.
This paperback edition brings together three stories: «La femme rompue», «L'âge de discrétion» and «Monologue».
Recommended for readers of French literature and feminist fiction who want to read Beauvoir in her original language.
Simone Lucie Ernestine Marie Bertrand de Beauvoir was a French existentialist philosopher, writer, social theorist, and feminist activist. Though she did not consider herself a philosopher, nor was she considered one at the time of her death, she had a significant influence on both feminist existentialism and feminist theory.
