Summary
Simone de Beauvoir has written nothing more moving than this record of her mother's death from cancer. The agonies of "a very easy death", the clinical humiliations of a proud woman, the unforseen flashes of love and hostility at the bedside are all told with an honesty that would be pitiless if it were not truly pitiable.
