Colette, Claudine in Paris

- Dimensions: 5.25" x 7.75" - Claudine in Paris is the second in Colette's four-part Claudine series, first published at the turn of the century. This installment tells the story of young Claudine, recently relocated from her small village to the dazzling metropolis of Paris. Here, she meets a cast of urban characters and embarks on a new series of adventures with Haussmann's Paris as the backdrop. Both a portrait of the city of lights and the feminine experience at the turn of the century, this book is beloved both for its story and for its author, who based much of it on her own life. We especially love this volume for its bright, graphic cover. - This first printing is in good vintage condition, with signs of wear consistent with age and use, notably some wear to the back of its original jacket. Please see our detailed photos; protective plastic sleeve included.
