Françoise Sagan was a French novelist and dramatist. She wrote her most well-known work, Bonjour Tristesse, in 1954 when she was 18 years old. She would go on to produce 20 other novels, three short story collections, nine plays, two biographies and several non-fiction pieces. A Certain Smile (1956) was her second novel, and is considered a sequel to her first. "These two novels, so spare and rigorous, so artistically correct, so thorough in their psychological realism, are the highest expression of the triangular purity of their author’s strange and beautiful esthétique." (Rachel Cusk, The New Yorker, 2004).
