Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The number one bestseller in France and Italy, from Francoise Heritier, one of France's leading thinkers, The Sweetness of Life is a beautiful and poetic list of the everyday reasons that make life worth living If you assume an average life expectancy of 85 years, and deduct the hours we spend da…ily on sleeping, shopping, eating, working, tending to our relationships and on everything else that is obligatory, then how much time is left for the average person to enjoy those activities that are the sweetness of life? For Francoise Heritier, it is those activities, those moments, that make up pure sensuality, the actual experience of humanity. These are the moments we all cherish . wild laughter, phone calls in general, coffee in the sun, the bliss of fresh autumn evenings, running in warm rain, long conversations at twilight, kisses on the back of the neck, the moment when all nature falls silent . those times when you know that someone likes you, is looking at you and listening to you, cooking a complicated dish, feeling agile and sprightly, getting back together with friends you haven't seen in ages, watching a craftsman at work, really listening to other people . "There's still so much else that I forget", says Heritier, and over fifty pages she goes on to list, with heartwarming and heartbreaking specificity, all that we so easily miss if we do not attend to the lightness and grace in the simple fact of existence, life's sweetness. What about you, what would you miss if all this had to disappear from your life forever? The French Number One Bestseller 'A series of perceptions, sensations, eddies, and happiness of writing that gives a real intensity to the existence . a true wonder' Laure Adler 'By listing all her reasons for living, she offers . the lesson that life is so precious, so beautiful, that you want to share it with the world' Marie Claire France 'A prose poem celebrating the everyday emotions, the simple fact of existence' Le Monde Francoise Heritier, an anthropologist, is Emeritus Professor at the College de France and the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales. She is the author of such highly successful works as Masculin/feminin and De la violence, translated into more than ten languages. Le Sel de la Vie (translated into English as The Sweetness of Life) is currently a French bestseller. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

New York: Zone Books, 2002, 341pp., PAPERBACK, very good copy, rear top corner bent, BUT old price crossed out in red ink on half-title, several remainder stripes on bottom foredge, dot on top foredge. Rear cover text: "a…nthropologist Francoise Héritier charts the incest prohibition throughout history from the strict decrees of Leviticus to modern civil codes. Through close and subtle readings, Heritier exposes the frequent, but often overlooked, elaborations concerning what she calls a secondary type of incest, namely, the prohibition of two close blood relatives engaging in sexual intercourse with a third person. Héritier not only understands this phenomenon to be as universal as the more classical "first" type of incest banning sexual relations between certain blood relatives; she advances the controversial thesis that the first type may indeed be an outgrowth of the secondary type of incest, once it is understood properly as the transfer of bodily fluids in a love triangle of sexual partners, two of whom are related to each other.". 9780942299342 ISBN 0942299345.
