- Synopsis
- Francoise Sagan is best known for her first novel, Bonjour Tristesse, which caused a scandal when she published it at the age of eighteen in 1953. Like Bonjour Tristesse, this novel is set in Paris in the 1950s and told by a young student, bored, restless, and curious. about love and sex. Frank and spontaneous, vulnerable and cruel, Sagan's young narrator explores unrequited love and the precarious balance of irrational emotions and self-restraint. Translated by Anne Green in 1956, this edition includes a new forewor by Diane Johnson, author of the bes selling novels Le Divorce and L'Affair.
