Customer Reviews of Le Ble En Herbe
extraordinary psychological nuance and sensual writing This is a great book, with vivid characters and plenty of moral complexity. It is about the affair of a very young man with an older woman, who uses him yet at the same time reflects the emptiness of her life and her enjoyment of control. You also get a wider view of the consequences of their affair on the delicate balance of his other relationships, particularly with his childhood lover. And the "relations" are handled with extreme dexterity and delicacy, never going for cheap thrills. It is packed with descriptions of sensations and thought, beautifully poetic and dense, requiring re-reading and reflection from the reader.
Taken together, it emerges as a subtle and unusually stimulating reading experience. Collette truly was underrated.
Warmly recommended.
My thoughts
I had to study this book for my A-levels and to be honest I found it a bit difficult to grasp the plot but this was due to the fact that this was the first French book I'd read. Once you get past the fact that it's French you can see a tale of two youngsters finding growing up to be a difficult time and with this we can see brilliant descriptions of emotions and the French coast of Brittany. There's much more to this book than meets the eye.
it was a good book
I mean the book was not bad and it was well written.I love the caracter of Philippe because he isn't like every teenager boy.He is sensible and caring.
