A Very Easy Death – Simone De Beauvoir

Description

A Very Easy Death has long been considered one of Simone de Beauvoir’s masterpieces. The profoundly moving, day-by-day recounting of her mother’s death “shows the power of compassion when it is allied with acute intelligence” (The Sunday Telegraph).

Powerful, touching, and sometimes shocking, this is an end-of-life account that no reader is ever likely to forget.
