«Mémoires d'une jeune fille rangée» is the autobiography of Simone de Beauvoir, published by Gallimard in paperback (502 pages, in French).
The author reconstructs her childhood and youth, from her early years to the moment she discovers philosophy and decides to devote herself to writing. Amid personal memories, friendships and readings, she narrates her intellectual and emotional awakening, and the gradual formation of her own consciousness in the world she lived in.
This book belongs to the Folio collection. The work was originally published in 1958; this edition appeared in 1972.
For readers interested in autobiography, French literature, and twentieth-century feminist and existentialist thought.
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.
