Mademoiselle Giraud, ma femme
Adolphe Belot · 2003
על הספר
"The sensational Mademoiselle Giraud, My Wife (published in 1870 with a preface by Zola) tells of the suffering of a naive young man whose new bride will not agree to consummate the marriage. Eventually he learns from an acquaintance, to his amazement, that their wives are lesbian lovers. In the pitched battle between husband and wife, the sexes are evenly matched - until the end.". "Christopher Rivers argues in his introduction that the protagonist's homophobic attitude toward lesbianism is ironically linked to his intimate homosocial bonds with men. This example of commercial fiction, Rivers argues, reveals tensions in nineteenth-century French society not apparent in canonical works of high culture."--BOOK JACKET.
