Title : The Lovers - Madeleine Chapsal - book

Summary :

One summer, on a small island in the Atlantic illuminated by its hollyhocks, its white houses, fringed by its long beaches of blond sand, vacationers bask in a bubble of pleasure where they forget everything - except love!

The very young, Jean-Marc and Cécile, are in the heat of their first emotions. They discover the acuteness of jealousy, the torture of quarrels, the joy of reunions...

The oldest, Jérôme and Marceline, are a couple who believe they are finally at peace after many storms. But now the past resurfaces in the person of Antoine, this handsome, middle-aged man whom Marceline loved so much... What does he bring? Heartbreak or wisdom?

As for the beautiful and solitary Marianne, she confides day after day in her notebook her frustrated, painful love for Michel, married, father of a family, who cruelly abandons her every summer... Then comes Fabrice, painter, bachelor, lover of women... To abandon oneself to a sensual adventure because the warmth and physical happiness invite it, is that betraying Michel?

In truth, in this burning season, all voluptuous impulses are permitted and none have any consequences, since the excesses of body and heart will inevitably return to order at the end of the holidays and with the return to reason...

But does love let go of its prey so easily?
