	A Transatlantic Love Affair
		Simone de Beauvoir's letters to Nelson Algren, written in English, were acquired by Ohio State University, at a public sale; she kept those Algren wrote to her.
		This chronicle of a "transatlantic love affair" is unique among the prolific correspondence that Simone de Beauvoir conducted throughout her life, for it involved, for once, someone from a wholly different orbit.
		The unanticipated arrival of this boor, this alien being, into her universe in 1947 forced Simone de Beauvoir to re-examine all that usually "went without saying": the obvious, the assumptions, the things taken for granted, the familiar realities of the world she shared with her old friends.

	WRITER OF O
		The book, awarded the Prix des Deux Magots in 1955, became a succès de scandale, its pseudonymous author the subject of much speculation and gossip in the tight-knit world of French belles lettres.
		The technique, perhaps intended to suggest the terror and ecstasy of self-abnegation, is startling and silly at once, although the subject matter admittedly lends itself to rococo flourishes.
		Pauline Réage was the nom de plume of Dominique Aury, but Dominique Aury was a pseudonym as well, adopted by the author for her essays and other occasional writings.
