About the Book

Una novela inédita, muy íntima, de la gran autora francesa ganadora del Premio Goncourt e icono del feminismo. Finalista del French-American Florence Gould Translation Prize Escrita en 1954, cinco años después de la publicación de El segundo sexo, Las inseparables narra la amistad apasionada que une a Sylvie y a Andrée -alter ego de la propia Simone de Beauvoir y de Élisabeth Lacoin (Zaza)- desde que con nueve años se conocen en la escuela. Andrée es alegre, inteligente y atrevida, y Sylvie, una niña formal que se siente irremediablemente atraída por su personalidad arrolladora. Juntas aprenderán a librarse de las convenciones y las expectativas asfixiantes de su entorno, ignorantes del trágico precio que tienen la libertad y la ambición intelectual y existencial. Una historia catártica para la autora, tal vez demasiado reveladora para publicarla en vida, cuya recuperación -junto con algunas fotografías y cartas que sirven de testimonio- constituye un acontecimiento literario. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION An unpublished, very intimate novel by the great French author, an icon for feminism, and winner of the Prix Goncourt. Finalist for the French-American Florence Gould Translation Prize Written in 1954, five years after the publication of The Second Sex, Las inseparables / The Inseparables narrates the passionate friendship between Sylvie and Andrée -alter egos of Simone de Beauvoir herself and Élisabeth Lacoin (Zaza) -starting when they met at school at nine years old. Andrée is cheerful, intelligent, and daring, and Sylvie, a formal girl who is irremediably attracted by Andrée’s overwhelming personality. Together they will learn to rid themselves of society’s stifling conventions and expectations, naïve about the tragic price that freedom and intellectual and existential ambition have. A cathartic story for the author, perhaps too revealing to publish during her lifetime. The recovery of this manuscript -along with some photographs and letters that serve as testimony- represents a great literary event.

About the Author :
Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986) nació en el seno de una familia burguesa y católica, y su obra literaria y filosófica tuvo una huella indeleble en el pensamiento del siglo xx. Compartió su vida con Jean-Paul Sartre, a quien conoció en La Sorbona, donde ambos estudiaban Filosofía. Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la ocupación alemana de París escribió su primera novela, La invitada (1943), a la que seguirían La sangre de los otros (1944), Todos los hombres son mortales (1946), Los mandarines (1954) #novela por la que recibió el Premio Goncourt#, Las bellas imágenes (1966), La mujer rota (1967) y Cuando predomina lo espiritual (1979). En 1954 escribió Las inseparables, novela de corte autobiográfico que ha permanecido inédita hasta ahora. Beauvoir es también autora de numerosos ensayos, entre los que destaca El segundo sexo (1949), que se convertiría en uno de los libros de referencia del movimiento feminista, y de una abundante obra memorialista que comenzó con Memorias de una joven formal (1958) y prosiguió con La plenitud de la vida (1960), La fuerza de las cosas (1963), Final de cuentas (1972) y La ceremonia del adiós (1981). En 2008 se instauró en su honor el Premio Simone de Beauvoir por la Libertad de las Mujeres.

Review :
La crítica ha dicho... «La novela más íntima de Simone de Beauvoir, material explosivo donde había depositado sus inquietudes primeras, sus coqueteos con el mundo, los deseos compartidos, la militancia natural entre dos hembras que se abrazaban completamente.» -Lorena G. Maldonado, El Español «Un libro inesperado [...] que desconcierta y fascina de inmediato.» -Silvia Ayuso, El País «Los lectores de Beauvoir hemos esperado por décadas esta novela.» -María Teresa Priego-Broca, La Silla Rota «La novela ilumina un capítulo formativo de los primeros años de vida de Beauvoir, así como una relación fundamental que moldeó sus puntos de vista sobre la desigualdad de género y el sexismo. También ofrece una nueva visión del desarrollo de Beauvoir como escritora y puede incluso remodelar la visión de eruditos y lectores de su legado literario.» -Alexandra Alter, The New York Times «No se puede hablar de feminismo hoy en día sin mencionar a Simone de Beauvoir. [...] Todo un referente.» -La Vanguardia («Mujeres extraordinarias») «Ningún escritor podría ser mejor compañía en un mundo complejo y desaparecido que Simone de Beauvoir.» -Diane Middlebrook «Simone de Beauvoir es definitiva.» -The Atlantic «Pasados cincuenta años sigue siendo emocionante leerla y sentirla cerca.» -Vivian Gornick «Se lee de un tirón.» -Óscar Caballero, La Vanguardia
