Carol V. (CarolR) reviewed on + 66 more book reviews
This is a novel with two distinct locales: Paris and Chicago. Unless you are really up on your post-war Existentialists their endless discussions can get a little tiresome and you may want a key to know exactly who de Bouvoir is actually writing about(e.g. which character is Camus?) The parts set in Chicago and the account of her affair with Nelson Algren are not to be missed.
