«Laissez-moi (Commentaire)» is the account by Marcelle Sauvageot, published by Phébus in paperback (128 pages, in French).
In a sanatorium, a young woman ill with tuberculosis receives the letter in which her lover ends the relationship. From that news, she reconstructs the lost love and analyzes the illusions on which it rested, demanding a life without concessions or lukewarmness. It combines lucidity, irony and an exacting defense of dignity.
Marcelle Sauvageot (1900-1934) died shortly after the initial publication of Laissez-moi, a work that appeared under the title Commentaire.
For readers of French literature and of short, introspective narratives about the experience of love.
