A Fleeting Sorrow is a delicate and emotionally nuanced novella by Françoise Sagan, known for her understated yet piercing portrayals of love, loneliness, and inner turmoil. In this brief but powerful work, Sagan captures the quiet moments of heartache — the kind that does not erupt loudly but lingers softly, like a shadow. The narrative explores relationships, memory, and the strange beauty of transient sadness. François Sagan (June 21, 1935 – September 24, 2004) was a French novelist and playwright. Sagan was one of the writers of the French New Wave, described as a symbol of the youth uprising in Paris after World War II and the flourishing of the era of existentialism.
