Form of Work
E-booki
In this novel of two parts – originally two separate novellas – we see the heroine Minne at two stages in her life. The cherished teenager, only child of a devoted mother, has a secret life: she wishes to belong to one of the street gangs who roam the outer boulevards of Paris. Her desire for excitement, power and love, drives the innocent into a dangerous adventure. Years later, as a married woman, she remains dissatisfied. She takes lovers, none of whom can make her a 'whole woman'. Only when her marital crisis reaches an extreme pitch does she find the answer, in an unexpected place. The Innocent Libertine was among the earliest works to be published by Colette under her own name.

In 1943, despite her own physical disabilities and the stress of living in a Paris under Nazi occupation, Colette, aged 70, published this delightful quartet of tales. In 'The Soldier's Hat', a middle-aged woman blossoms when an unlikely love affair embellishes her hard-working existence - until she makes a fateful mistake. 'The Tender Shoot' sees a fifty-year-old roué trounced when his roving eye falls on a fifteen-year-old country girl. In 'The Green Sealing Wax', the success of a widow's attempt to forge her late husband's will depends on the colour of the sealing wax she uses. 'Armande' is a tale of two bashful lovers. Maxime is unable to declare his passion for Armande, nor can she express her feelings for him, until one day she shakes a door handle too violently… A 'lost' story, 'A Wedding', from the first edition of Colette's final work of fiction, 'Gigi', completes this late flowering of Colette's exceptional talent.
