Overview
Ā«Todo un siglo feminista en palabras e imĆ”genes. Esta novela grĆ”fica catapulta brillantemente el pensamiento de Simone de Beauvoir hasta nuestros dĆas. Ā”De obligada lectura!Ā». -Sonja Eismann
Ā«Lo quiero todo de la vida, quiero ser mujer y quiero ser hombre, quiero tener muchos amigos y gozar de la soledad, quiero trabajar mucho y escribir buenos libros, quiero viajar y pasarlo bien, quiero ser egoĆsta y quiero ser generosaĀ», dijo Simone de Beauvoir en una carta a su amante Nelson Algren. Desde su infancia, en una Ć©poca en la que a las mujeres no se les permitĆa estudiar, votar o elegir su profesiĆ³n, hasta convertirse en una de las pensadoras mĆ”s influyentes de todos los tiempos, Simone se embarcĆ³ con pasiĆ³n en la gran aventura de ser ella misma. La filĆ³sofa y escritora existencialista, que se declarĆ³ comunista y atea, que formĆ³ con Sartre una pareja mĆtica, pero que decidiĆ³ no casarse ni tener hijos, y que tratĆ³ de entender quĆ© significa ser mujer, sigue siendo un icono incontestable del feminismo y una fuente de inspiraciĆ³n para una legiĆ³n de lectoras. Las premiadas Julia Korbik y Julia Bernhard retratan a la autora de El segundo sexo como hija, amiga, amante: una intelectual que lo quiso todo de la vida y explorĆ³ como nadie lo habĆa hecho antes en la condiciĆ³n femenina, la sexualidad, la libertad y las distintas maneras de amar.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A one-of-a-kind passionate biography exploring the life of one of the most influential women of all time, by the winners of the Luise BĆ¼chner Prize for journalism and the Max and Moritz Award.
Ā
āI want everything in life, I want to be a woman and I want to be a man, I want to have many friends and enjoy solitude, I want to work plenty and write good books, I want to travel and have a good time, I want to be selfish and I want to be generous,ā Simone de Beauvoir wrote in a letter to her lover, Nelson Algren.
From her childhood days, in a time when women were not allowed to study, vote, nor choose a profession, up until becoming one of the most influential thinkers of our time, Simone embarked enthusiastically on the great adventure of being herself. The philosopher and the existentialist writer that declared herself a communist and an atheist, who formed a mythical couple with Sartre, but decided not to marry nor bear children, who tried to understand what it means to be a woman, is still an unchallenged icon of feminism and a source of inspiration to a legion of readers.
The Luise BĆ¼chner Prize laureates, Julia Korbik and Julia Bernhard, portray the author of The Second Sex as a daughter, a friend, a lover, an intellectual who wanted everything in life and exploredāas no one had done before in female conditionāthe sexuality, the freedom, and the different ways to love.
