THE GREAT TEXTS OF THE 20TH CENTURY

The villa is magnificent, the summer is scorching hot, the Mediterranean nearby. Cécile is seventeen. She knows nothing of love but kisses, dates, and weariness. Not for long. Her father, a widower, is a joyful devotee of fleeting and unimportant affairs. They have fun, they don't need anyone, they are happy. The visit of a kind-hearted, intelligent, and calm woman disrupts this delicious chaos. How can the threat be averted? In the blazing pine forest, a cruel game is being prepared.

It was the summer of 1954. For the first time, the dry, rapid voice of a "charming little monster" was heard who would cause a scandal. The second half of the 20th century was beginning. She would be like this adolescent torn between remorse and the cult of pleasure.
