The Guardian of the Heart is a novel by the French writer Françoise Sagan, published in 1968.
Josée travels across America with her husband Alan, trying to find freedom and meaning in a marriage marked by jealousy, insecurity, and emotional dependency.
The novel follows three women: Diane, a noblewoman; Catherine Simonidzé, a feminist; and the real Clara Zetkin, a communist. Through their destinies, the crisis of bourgeois society, women's emancipation, and the path to communism are depicted.
This collection is perfect for fans of psychological mysteries like Agatha Christie or Simenon, but with a French poetic touch.
The birth, childhood, upbringing and warlike exploits of the giant Gargantua: a satire on scholasticism, wars, monasticism and society, with grotesque humour, enormous eating/drinking and utopian ideals.
