Mademoiselle Chanel of literature, French Salinger and Fitzgerald, scandalous star, gambler, a pro-life and a subtle psychologist; Françoise Sagan, who made a splash with her first novel "Hello, Sadness!" (1954) - an invariably fresh voice that speaks with crystal honesty about what living people think and feel. (1954), - an invariably fresh voice, crystal honestly speaking about what live people think and feel. Sagan's books have been translated into dozens of languages, they are read and reread by millions of people around the world and passionately screen filmmakers. A woman trades love for comfort in "The Surrender Signal." A young man with peculiar notions of morality, who appeared out of nowhere, undertakes to protect a Hollywood screenwriter from the cruelties of the world in "Guardian Angel". A composer supported by a rich wife unexpectedly creates something popular and for the first time in many years asks the question of freedom in "The Leash". Finally, the author insightfully discusses TV debates, horses, laughter, Catherine Deneuve, Georges Sand and Gorbachev in his memoir, From the Heart. The characters in each of Françoise Sagan's books are simply people, vulnerable and imperfect, and so the pictures that appear to us are not always flattering, but they are profound, accurate and tender.
