About the book

Simone de Beauvoir's The Mandarins follows a group of French intellectuals attempting to rebuild their personal and political lives after the Second World War. The characters debate communism, political commitment, journalism and literature while navigating complicated relationships. Drawing partly on Beauvoir's own intellectual circle, the novel explores the difficult relationship between private happiness and public responsibility.
