She wore a simple black sweater and gray skirt if she is a vain girl the only indication of it was her high-heeled shoes, which were of elegantly worked light gray leather. Her manner is shy, but casual and friendly, and her gamine face crinkles easily into an attractive, rather secret smile. She met the interviewer in the comfortably furnished living room, seated them in large chairs drawn up to a marble fireplace, and offered them scotch from a pint bottle which was unquestionably, somehow, her own contribution to the larder. But when she was interviewed early last spring just before the publication of Un Certain sourire, she lived across the city in her parents’ apartment on the Boulevard Malesherbes in a neighborhood that is a stronghold of the well-to-do French bourgeoisie.
