"Ironically, the same France, through her tax authorities, had seized till the last franc of Sagan's royalties and property, and thus condemned her to a painful and difficult survival during the last four years of her life. Only by the kindness of a few friends she avoided being homeless. These friends appealed for an amnesty that would have allowed Sagan a less tragic end. The French government was adamant in punishing and making an example of her."
