«Lo puro y lo impuro» is Colette's book of literary portraits, published by Argos Vergara in hardcover (146 pages, in Spanish).
Colette portrays real people who become literary characters: women who love other women, womanizers, opium addicts, sapphic alcoholics, and tarot readers. Through their lives, the author reflects on purity and impurity, pleasure, freedom, solitude, and the search for oneself, offering an acerbic and sometimes sweet look at life.
Published in 1982, this edition belongs to the LibrosDB imprint.
For readers of literature and fiction interested in character portraits and the contradictions of desire, purity, and freedom.
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.
