Overview
Full of wit, drama and intensity, Chéri by Colette is a groundbreaking novel which grapples with radical ideas about sexuality and ageing, from one of the most beloved French writers in history.
Fred Peloux, affectionately nicknamed Chéri, is handsome and spoilt. Until now he's lived a life of hedonistic luxury, and has been indulged in his every desire. He is newly married to the young and beautiful Edmée, and according to early twentieth-century Parisian society, he has everything a man could dream of. But the only woman he can think about is his lover, Léa de Lonval, a beautiful, ageing courtesan who has stolen his heart.
Set in Paris's demi-monde at the beginning of the twentieth century, Chéri by Colette is a passionate story of devotion, misplaced desire, and the passage of time. This edition is introduced by acclaimed writer Paul Bailey, and translated by writer and journalist Janet Flanner, who was the Paris correspondent for The New Yorker for fifty years.
Chéri is part of the Macmillan Collector's Library, a series of stunning, pocket-sized classics bound in real cloth with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover.
