The second volume of Simone de Beauvoir's iconic autobiography recalls her formative years in Paris when she began to emerge as a public figure. First published in 1960, The Prime of Life offers an intimate, enchanting portrait of Simone de Beauvoir in her twenties, thirties, and forties. Starting as a recent graduate of the Sorbonne, teaching students, we see de Beauvoir enjoying the freedom afforded by her new financial independence. We witness her and Jean-Paul Sartre acknowledging the powerful romantic and intellectual partnership they have found in one another as they fall in love and define their own unconventional rules. World War II arrives, bringing severity, violence, and questions about the reality of freedom and individual responsibility in de Beauvoir's life. As relevant and penetrating as it was when first published, The Prime of Life offers a rare perspective on a truly fascinating mind.
