About the book

The Blood of Others by Simone de Beauvoir is a classic fiction book for adult readers.

Potent and vividly emotional, Simone de Beauvoir's captivating novel questions freedom and individual responsibility in the face of brutality 'These carefree faces, on which we allowed our smiles to spread, were for others the mask of tragedy. Jean Blomart, patriot leader against the German forces of occupation, waits throughout an endless night for his wounded lover, Hel ne, to die.

Told through memories of his and her life, The Blood of Others paints an intense and moving picture of their love story and life in German occupied Paris during the Second World War. In the face of a seemingly unstoppable force, Hel ne and Jean are confronted by the illusion of freedom and made to question their individual roles in the collective struggle against fascism, with devastating consequences.
