<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>La joven George siempre ha veraneado en el pueblo de la costa bretona donde vive Gauvain. Ambos se conocen desde que eran niños. Con el tiempo, él se ha convertido en un tosco marinero que, en teoría, no debería interesar lo más mínimo a alguien como ella, parisina, universitaria y de buena familia. Sin embargo, una noche, los dos se dejarán llevar por una atracción tan poderosa que ignorará cualquier convención social y que, inevitablemente, los unirá en secreto para toda la vida. La escritora Benoîte Groult, famosa entre otras cosas por su reivindicación de los derechos de la mujer, quiso en esta novela dar voz a un personaje femenino profundamente libre y, a través de él, recrear el lenguaje de la pasión y la sexualidad femenina. Al tener como protagonista a una mujer emancipada que narra su deseo y sus experiencias con toda claridad, un terreno tradicionalmente reservado a la visión masculina, la obra se convirtió en un escándalo cuando se publicó en los años ochenta. Sin embargo, hoy en día está considerada una de las grandes historias de amor de la narrativa francesa contemporánea.<p><i>Young George has always spent her summers in a small town on the Breton coast, where Gauvain lives. Both have known each other since they were children. Over time, he has become a rough sailor who, in theory, should not be in the least interested in someone like her, a well-born Parisian university student. However, one night, the two get carried away by a physical attraction so powerful that it will knock down all social conventions and inevitably unite them in secret for life. The writer Benoîte Groult, famous among other things for her activism for women's rights, manages to give voice to a deeply free female character and, through her, recreate the language of feminine passion and sexuality . Having an emancipated woman who narrates her desire and her experiences as a protagonist, a point of view traditionally reserved for the masculine vision, the work became a scandal when it was published in the eighties. However, today it is considered one of the great love stories of contemporary French narrative.</i></p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Benoîte Groult </b>was a famous journalist and writer.
