The Pure and the Impure
22,83 €
It begins in the darkness and languor of a fashionable opium den, and continues as a series of unforgettable encounters with men and, especially, women whose lives have been improbably and yet permanently transfigured by the power of desire. Lucidand lyrical, THE PURE AND THE IMPURE stands out as one of modern literature’s subtlest reckonings not only with the varieties of sexual experience, but with the unlikely nature of love.
Colette considered this her best book: a guided tour of the erotic netherworld with which she was so intimately acquainted.
