 She idealizes her life and becomes involved in the lives of her students but ultimately refuses to help them.
 "Lisa" is the third and shortest story, about a girl who struggles to live a spiritual life while existing in a physical body.
 "Anne", the fourth story, is the result of many of de Beauvoir's earlier attempts at writing.
 It parallels the story of her friend Elisabeth Mabille (Zaza) who died soon after her mother refused to allow her to marry Maurice Merleau-Ponty.
 The final story, "Marguarite" expresses the existential views that de Beauvoir herself believed that life itself should be experienced, rather than spirituality.
