First sentence: On 19 April 1986, some 5000 mourners, young and old, crowded behind Simone de Beauvoir's funeral cortège and followed it through the streets of Paris to the Montparnasse Cemetery where her ashes found their place next to those of Jean-Paul Sartre, her partner in life and death, though never in marriage.
