No m’ha agradat especialment la història però si la forma com es descriuen els sentiments, les accions i els paisatges.

De Colette se disfruta cada párrafo, cada frase, cada palabra se paladea y saborea como el helado de un sabor preferido. No hay nada fortuito en sus textos: cada palabra elegida es la palabra adecuada y precisa para crear imágenes imborrables en el lector, conduciéndole al lugar donde guarda sus propios recuerdos de veranos infantiles y acabar recreándose en ellos.

"Il m'a dit, 'j'ai envie de toi',
Il avait vu au cinéma,
'Le Blé en Herbe'…".

No wonder it was Dalida's iconic song that made me read this. A controversial book? Sign me up!

However, I didn't know I would feel this bad after finishing it. I had read the synopsis months ago and thought "ooh, that's interesting", but now that I've read the actual book myself, I feel indescribably weird (and not in a positive way).

This was disgustingly disturbing.

La lectura perfecta per acabar l’estiu, la prosa de Colette és ideal per ser llegida al costat de la mar, amb el sol gratant l’esquena. Una novel·la curta sobre el despertar sexual de dos adolescents burgesos que es coneixen des de l’infantesa, un amor que creix cada estiu.

“En Philippe intercanvià amb la Vinca el petó de cada dia, que sempre queia al costat de la falta que ella li oferia i relliscava cap a l’orella, o cap al coll, o a la vora de la boca.”

I don't know if it's just the edition I got but when I read this in college (in French) it was not an affair with an older woman. She literally drugged his orange juice and he was very traumatized from the whole thing. Would not recommend at all, not a fun book.

Megláttam a könyves bódéban és jött velem. A magyar cím gyönyörű és tökéletes, a regény szövege szintén esztétikai öröm. Kicsit fejlődésregény, kicsit könnyed románc, nyaralásra szuper.
