«Lou: Historia de una mujer libre» is the biographical portrait of Lou Andreas-Salomé by Françoise Giroud, published by Fayard in paperback.
Portrait of Lou Andreas-Salomé (1861-1937), a Russian intellectual who rejected Nietzsche's love, had a passionate affair with Rilke and was a friend of Freud. Giroud explores the chastity Lou maintained until she was thirty-five and her later relationship with younger men, and stresses that her writing secured her material and social independence and turned her into one of the first free women in Europe.
