This recently rediscovered novel is the compulsive story of two close friends growing up and falling apart. When Andrée joins her school, Sylvie is immediately fascinated. Andrée is small for her age, but walks with the confidence of an adult. Secretly Sylvie believes that Andrée is a prodigy about whom books will be written. The girls talk for hours about equality, justice, war and religion; they lose respect for their teachers; they build a world of their own. But they can't stay like this forever. Written in 1954, five years after The Second Sex, the novel was never published in Simone de Beauvoir's lifetime.

Sammendrag: Da Andrée begynder på Sylvies skole, bliver Sylvie straks fascineret af hendes selvsikre og modne væsen. De to piger bliver uadskillelige og skaber deres eget intellektuelle univers fyldt med diskussioner om samfund, religion og moral. Men efterhånden som de bliver ældre, lægger omgivelsernes forventninger pres på deres forhold. Romanen bygger på et virkeligt venskab, der fik stor betydning for Simone de Beauvoirs liv og tænkning.
