Françoise Sagan: Hello sadness!

Francoise Sagan was called Mademoiselle Chanel from literature. Starting from the very first novel, Hello, Sadness! (1954), which made a lot of noise, her literary career developed brilliantly, she created book after book with amazing ease, they were translated into various languages ​​and they scattered around the world in millions of copies. In a long and eventful life, Sagan wrote more than twenty novels, three collections of short stories, nine plays, two biographies, and several collections of memoirs. However, "Hello, sadness!" remains her most famous work - so strong was the impression from him and such a deep influence this book had on French society. The action of Sagan's novels included in this collection takes place in Paris and the provinces, as in "A vague smile", "Do you love Brahms?", "In a month, in a year", on the Mediterranean coast ("Hello, sadness!") And beyond the seas-oceans ("Magic Clouds"). Her characters fall in love, lie, have fun and suffer, they spend years in pursuit of happiness, and Sagan, like no one else, understood that this was an elusive and extremely unstable substance.
