[edit] Quote

"Ironically, the same France, through her tax authorities, had seized till the last franc of Sagan's royalties and property, and thus condemned her to a painful and difficult survival during the last four years of her life. Only by the kindness of a few friends she avoided being homeless. These friends appealed for an amnesty that would have allowed Sagan a less tragic end. The French government was adamant in punishing and making an example of her." What the fuck is this right-wing shit doing here? If you don't understand socialism then don't presume to open your mouth on the subject of French culture. --62.255.236.227 15:28, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

I think that quote actually shows a working understanding of socialism (which isn't, wasn't, and will never be exclusively a French issue), and if you notice the grammar, its structured in a more Latin style than English; it's rather uncomfortable, and reads like a straight translation, with no edit - in other words, it might have been written by a French person. Ironic, non? Emailnuevo (talk) 13:30, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lovers

Wasn't Francoise Sagan also the mistress of Jean Paul Sartre ? This seems to be a notable omission. ---- Penvronius Miles Cambrensis

[edit] Des bleus à l'âme

While working on the "Works" section, I moved Des bleus à l'âme from "Autobiography" to "Novels". I've read the book and it is a cross between a novel and an essay, I don't think it'd be fair to put it together with interviews and such. Jashiin (talk) 09:48, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
