Gigi, Julie de Carneilhan, and Chance Acquaintances: Three Short Novels by Colette

4.0

Colette's most known work, Gigi, is included in the volume of three short novels. While it is a charming story, I really like the other two better. They capture much more, for me at least, the spirit of what I think Paris was like during this time period. Also, they express the depths of the single female in a world where marriage rules but infidelity is as common as tea time.
