Madame, Paperback / softback Book

Madame Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Madame tells the story of a self-absorbed Polish teenager as he pursues intellectual maturity, and the woman of his dreams, his French teacher 'Madame', in the communist-dominated Warsaw of the early 1970s. Libera paces his exuberant young hero's fulminations, fantasies and discoveries beautifully, building a remarkably subtle characterisation of a free mind in a repressive culture.

This is one of those rare novels which reminds us why we love books.

A consummate literary entertainment.
