And those are just the details we know about. She admits that worse - perhaps including sexual threats - remain concealed, probably until she writes her memoirs. Now she's planning to visit the Pope, and on Monday will receive the Legion of Honor from Sarkozy at a Bastille Day ceremony.

Unemployed and disaffected, they have embraced a kind of blissful ambivalence towards life as they float between parties, drugs, and a sexual freedom unknown to their elders. Some run small businesses - DIY music venues, tattoo parlors, head shops.
