Synopsis

Before Francoise Sagan the literary icon there was Francoise Quoirez, an eighteen-year-old Parisian girl, who wrote a novel and needed a publisher for it. This intimate narrative charts the months in 1954 leading up to the publication of the legendary 'Bonjour Tristesse'. We encounter Francoise, her family and friends close-up, in a post-war world that is changing radically; and Mlle Quoirez, in her new guise of Francoise Sagan, will be at the heart of that social change. Sagan was always focused on her writing, though at times the fame of her books was to be eclipsed by her wild-child reputation. Yet, as Anne Berest herself testifies, Sagan's fearless approach to life lived on her own terms remains an inspiration even now.
