# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born Françoise Delphine Quoirez on 21 June 1935, she wrote Bonjour Tristesse in 1954 while still in her teens, and it became her signature work. The novel's cool eye on romantic entanglement among the rich and restless set the template for everything that followed: plays, novels, screenplays, all circling the same territory of wealth and ennui. She kept writing until her death on 24 September 2004, but never escaped the shadow — or the clarity — of that first book.
