Not quite unrequited love! May 26, 2008 The love story of an older woman and a young man told with such realism and passion and yet understandably tragic. A great story, a great love story but not an epic story. Nevertheless, I would whole heartedly recommend this!
Thought-provoking, sensuous read November 10, 2001 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Very French. Very sexy. The classic story of an experienced older woman's final fling with a gorgeous teenage boy. This is a vivid portrait of the Parisian demi-monde before WWI, an unsentimental love story and an intelligent study of women and aging. The subject matter is earthy, the style poetic.
