A short existentialist fiction ft. feminist & Marxist critique of mid-20th century French bourgeois culture? Simone de Beauvoir's non-fiction is incredible, don't know why I'm surprised that this book is so good. The translation / edit has had a few glaring, weird issues so far (particularly noticeable because de Beauvoir's literary style is already so unconventional), but it's a great read.

It will be a while before I have time to return to this book, but it is pretty amazing. Apparently one of the most beloved and important novels in Chinese history. Doesn't feel like it was written 300 years ago. Poetic, funny, beautiful, mysterious, socially critical, self-aware.
