Noon in Paris, eight in Chicago / Douglas Cowie. by Cowie, Douglas. Myriad Editions, 2016. Call #: FICTION COW Subjects Beauvoir, Simone de, 1908-1986 -- Fiction.   Algren, Nelson, 1909-1981 -- Fiction.   Intellectuals -- 20th century -- Fiction.   Authors -- 20th century -- Fiction.   Chicago (Ill.) -- Fiction.   Paris (France) -- Fiction. ISBN:  9780956559975 (trade pbk) Description:  309 p. ; 20 cm. Summary:  "Chicago, 1947: on a freezing February night, France’s feminist icon Simone de Beauvoir calls up radical resident novelist Nelson Algren, asking him to show her around. After a whirlwind tour of dive bars, cabarets and the police lockup, the pair return to his apartment on Wabansia Avenue. Here, a passion is sparked that will last for the next two decades. Their relationship intensifies during intoxicating months spent together in Paris and Chicago. But in between are long, anguished periods apart filled with competing desires -- lovers old and new, writing, politics, gambling -- which ultimately expose the fragility of their unconventional ‘marriage’ and put their devotion to the test."--Publisher.
