The Mandarins

This book has been translated by dar Al Adab

In her most famous novel, Simone de Beauvoir does not flinch in her look at Parisian intellectual society at the end of World War II.

Drawing on those surrounding her — Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, Arthur Koestler — and her passionate love affair with Nelson Algren, Beauvoir dissects the emotional and philosophical currents of her time.

At once an engrossing drama and an intriguing political tale, The book is the emotional odyssey of a woman torn between her inner desire and her public life.

The novel  won France’s highest literary prize, the Prix Goncourt.
