Produktbeskrivelse
Colette's Ch ri (1920) and its sequel, The End of Ch ri (1926), are widely considered her masterpieces. In sensuous, elegant prose, the two novels explore the evolving inner lives and the intimate relationship of an unlikely couple: L a de Lonval, a middle-aged former courtesan, and Fred Peloux, twenty-five years her junior, known as Ch ri. The two have been involved for years, and it is time for Ch ri to get on with life, to make something of himself, but he, the personification of male beauty and vanity, doesn't know how to go about it. It is time, too, for L a to let go ofCh ri and the sensual life that has been hers, and yet this is more easily resolved than done. Ch ri marries, but once married he is restless and is inevitably drawn back to his mistress, as she is to him. And yet to reprise their relationship is only to realize even more the inevitability of its end. That end will come when Ch ri, back from World War I, encounters a world that the war has changed through and through. Lost in his memories of time past, he is irremediably lost to the busy present. Paul Eprile's new translation of these two celebrated novels brings out a vivid sensuality and acute intelligence that past translations have failed to capture.
