Françoise Sagan lived the life she wanted, but she was not happy. She was overcome by an existential sadness that filled her insides, and forced her to isolate herself in her room for seven continuous weeks to broadcast her sorrows to the papers. Thus, her first novel, "Good Morning, O Sorrow," was born, which she published in the early fall of 1954, before She is eighteen years old.
It was not a traditional novel at all, due to the circumstances of its writing and also to the nature of its subject. On the one hand, it revolves around the world of teenagers, observing its fluctuations and turmoil, smoothly and without the superficial views and complex theories that might be issued by older writers. On the other hand, the novel goes beyond its events to reveal another... A statement containing a hidden assessment between the lines of frivolous life in bourgeois French society.
