A beautiful, poetic childhood story of the little girl that was to become Colette. I read it years ago (and I mean, years !), yet it's one book that always comes to my mind when I think of my favorites of all time : first Jane Eyre, then Claudine's house. No third - too many books.
I love the small town story, but most of all, I could feel the countryside, the house, nature all jumping up from the page, I felt immersed in it. Such a beautiful, beautiful novel, beautiful storytelling, beautiful everything...
(PS : the cover of the Hesperus press book is awfully ugly, don't get intimidated by it !!)

Léger et agréable à lire, comme souvent les romans de Colette.
