«Amores contrariados» is the collection of three short novels by Colette, published by Alba Editorial in paperback (200 pages, in Spanish).
«El pimpollo», «El quepis» and «La luna de lluvia» share the theme of the difficulty of achieving lasting romantic happiness. Colette gives prominence to female characters and to bonds between sisters, mothers and daughters, or friends marked by admiration, rivalry and resentment. The prose, serene and sensual, seeks ecstasy in the modest and secret.
This title is number 78 in the Clásicos Modernos series and was published in 2002.
For the general public interested in French literature and in Colette's short fiction.
Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette, known mononymously as Colette or as Colette Willy, was a French author and woman of letters. She was also a mime, actress, and journalist. Colette is best known in the English-speaking world for her 1944 novella Gigi, which was the basis for the 1958 film and the 1973 stage production of the same name. Her short story collection The Tendrils of the Vine is also famous in France.
