Annette arrives in Paris at sixteen and moves through Parisian society of the 1950s: bourgeois salons, offices of the capital, students, journalists and activists. Her ironic and grave gaze follows her sentimental education as the Indochina War ends, the Algerian War begins and De Gaulle returns to politics.
Subtitled 'roman' on the cover, this paperback edition was published in Paris in 1988. The author, Pierre-Jean Rémy (1937-2010), appears on the title page as 'de l'Académie française'.
For readers of French fiction who enjoy period portraits, political settings and sentimental education in 1950s Paris.
