Description
Chéri and The End of Chéri is a two-part novel by Colette, now published in one volume. This new translation brings out the vivid sensuality and acute intelligence that have made these novels celebrated works of 20th-century literature.
The story revolves around Léa de Lonval, a middle-aged former courtesan, and her young lover, Chéri, who is struggling to make a life for himself. As they navigate their complex relationship, they must confront the changing world around them, including the impact of World War I.
