成为波伏瓦 – Becoming Beauvoir: A Life by Kate Kirkpatrick

《成为波伏瓦》是根据近几年新曝光的波伏瓦信件、早期日记等材料撰写的波伏瓦全新权威传记。“女人不是天生的,而是后天成为的。”波伏瓦如是说。这本开创性的传记引入波伏瓦此前从未被出版的日记和信件等全新材料,把她从萨特的阴影中拉出来,使她站在属于自己的聚光灯下。这本传记将为读者呈现一个更为真实立体的波伏瓦,也让我们重新看待波伏瓦和萨特的关系。

本书还将呈现很多此前不为人所知的波伏瓦的个人细节,这些新的细节会增强波伏瓦的神秘感,也会使我们对波伏瓦更加着迷。为什么这位“女性主义偶像”要着力打造自己的形象?为什么关于她和萨特的关系她会频频“撒谎”,或是声称自己不是一个哲学家?也许带着这些新的细节,我们能更进一步地去认识真正的波伏瓦。

‘One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman’, wrote Simone de Beauvoir.

This is a woman who was also to become a philosopher, a novelist, an existentialist, and a feminist icon. Her novels won prestigious literary prizes and The Second Sex transformed the way we think about sex and gender. She was also the long-term lover of Jean-Paul Sartre, but it was to film-maker Claude Lanzmann that she wrote ‘You are my destiny, my eternity, my life …’ in letters which only came to light in 2018.

Kate Kirkpatrick draws on previously unavailable diaries and letters, including those written to Lanzmann.

The new personal details about her life revealed for the first time by the book can only deepen the mystery and our fascination with her. Why did this ‘feminist icon’ edit her image so much? Why did she lie about her relationship with Sartre so often, or claim not to be a philosopher? Perhaps with so much that’s new here we’ll get a little closer to understanding who Beauvoir really was.
