"All Men Are Mortal" is one of the most famous and unusual novels by Simone de Beauvoir, a French writer, winner of the Goncourt Prize, author of the book "The Second Sex".

The famous theater actress dreams of eternal glory. She is tormented by the thought that in a hundred years no one will remember her name, there will be no people left who saw her incomparable performance on stage. In one provincial town, she meets a strange man who seems to be in an eternal trance. He does not eat, does not communicate with anyone, does not leave the hotel courtyard even during heavy rain. Intrigued, Regina tries to get to know the mysterious man better and soon learns that in front of her is the only immortal person in the world. His gaze is a pass to eternity. Regina asks Raymond Fosca to tell the story of his incredible, frightening life of 670 years. Italy, France, Spain, South America, England... It seems that all the important events of the Western world passed through Raymond Fosca like sand through his fingers, leaving him with nothing but longing... and memories.
