Break of Day
Break of Day | Colette, Enid McLeod
3 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
Colette began writing Break of Day in her early fifties, at Saint-Tropez on the Cte d'Azur, where she had bought a small house after the breakup of her second marriage. The novel's theme--the renunciation of love and the return to an independent existence supported and enriched by the beauty and peace of nature--grows out of Colette's own period of self-assessment in the middle of her life. A collection of subtle reflections about love and life, it is among her most thoughtful and stylistically bold works.

The joy of the second-hand book. 😆 Up till now it's been a few little X's in the margin.

merelybookish @TheBookHippie @dabbe @Susanita @OrangeMooseReads @sarahbarnes @AlaMich @Cathythoughts @Reggie @Ddzmini It's a mystery! Fortunately just that one page although there's some strange numbering on another page. 🤷 7mo

Mehso-so

Me and Collette might be on a break after this one. I'm not even going to try to explain this one. I haven't a fucking clue what the point of this was. Maybe there is no point. Maybe a dung beetle is just a dung beetle.

TheAromaofBooks Oh dear, at least it's off the list!! 3y
vlwelser @TheAromaofBooks it wasn't even on my list. It was just a random book I grabbed at the library. They have a weird selection of French books. 3y

A letter from Colette's mother addressed to Colette's husband. I found the letter touching and I think this is what I will read once I finish Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki....
