Ch?ri: spoiled, petulant, beautiful, aged twenty-five. L?a: magnificent, brilliant, remorseless, aged forty-nine. They are in love, but their relationship exists beyond the bounds of social acceptability and must one day come to an end, no matter the cost. A succ?s de scandale on publication for its depiction of transgressive love, Colette's celebrated novella is also a profound and compelling exploration of the passage of time, the body and ageing, mirrors, self-perception, self-knowledge and the tragedy of mortality.Binding: Paperback / softback
