A beautiful hardback copy of La Chamade by French author Françoise Sagan whose first novel Bonjour Tristesse, written in three weeks when she was 18 years old, scandalised French society with a tale of bourgeois affairs in the French Riviera. La Chamade gives us the story of thirty year old Lucile as she struggles with love and class in the cafes of 1960s Paris.
Translated by Sagan's ex-husband and American playboy Robert Westhoff.
