Natalie Sorokin
Natalie Sorokine (17 May 1921 – 20 December 1968) was a French woman who had relations with Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre.[1][2] Beauvoir was suspended from her teaching job after seducing her 17-year-old lycée pupil in 1939. Sorokin, along with Bianca Lamblin and Olga Kosakiewicz, later stated that their relationships with Sartre and de Beauvoir damaged them psychologically.[1]
Early life
[edit]Sorokine was born in Constantinople, Turkey, to White Russian émigrés Porfiry Sorokin and his wife, Natalia Sorokina.
Existential life with Simone de Beauvoir
[edit]In June 1943, Sorokin's mother complained to the school authorities that de Beauvoir had led her daughter astray. De Beauvoir was accused of behavior leading to the corruption of a minor and her teaching license was suspended for the rest of her life.[3] Sorokin later said her relationship with de Beauvoir and Sartre came to an end when she found this relationship serving only one party.[4][page needed]
Later life
[edit]After recovering from her trauma, Sorokin started writing and worked for radio.[3][page needed] She later married Ivan Moffat, a friend of de Beauvoir and Sartre's and son of the British actress and poet Iris Tree and artist and photographer Curtis Moffat.[5] Their marriage was brief and produced one daughter.
