Ein sanfter Tod
Ein sanfter Tod | Simone de Beauvoir
10 posts | 15 read | 14 to read
Simone de Beauvoir gehrt zu jenen auergewhnlichen Menschen, die ihre Zeit geprgt haben. Ihr Leben, ihre Werke und ihre Kmpfe haben zum Fortschritt des Bewutseins der Mnner und Frauen von heute in Frankreich und in der Welt beigetragen. (Franois Mitterrand) Eines der eindrcklichsten Bcher von Simone de Beauvoir handelt vom Tod ihrer eigenen Mutter. Die Schriftstellerin erzhlt, wie sie tage- und nchtelang am Sterbebett weilte und wachte; wie sie der Frau, die ihr das Leben geschenkt hatte, in den allerletzten Tagen nherkam. Dem Buch gab Simone de Beauvoir einen wehmtigen, beinahe staunenden Titel: Une mort trs douce. Jetzt ist sie, 78 Jahre alt, so sanft entschlafen. (Die ZEIT)

A beautiful setting for a beautifully and honestly told rendition of the death of a loved one. It brought me so close to the turmoil I felt when my grandmother was the hospital and seemed to be better one day and then far worse the next. Thank God she pulled through intact but I'm thankful this book exists.

Hour 7 and counting... Oh man- sometimes I just laugh at myself. This is what I am carrying around today because I am switching up locations for this @24in48 readathon because it's a stunning day outside and I need material at the ready to keep the forward motion. So I am lugging these around today like a security blanket. 🤣😂

Day 3- book buying extravaganza at Powell's comes to an end with a back breaking conclusion. I'm wiped out but thrilled with all my purchases.

When someone you love dies you pay for the sin of outliving her with a thousand piercing regrets. Her death brings to light her unique quality; she grows as vast as the world that her absence annihilates for her and whose whole existence was caused by her being there...
