The Passion of Mademoiselle S. by Jean-Yves BerthaultMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
A French diplomat finds a bag of old letters in a cellar. This letters are more than 80 years old and are sent from Simone to Charles, her lover.
In them she describes with all detail their affair, what they did when they last saw each other and what she plans for their next appointment.
As we only have Simone's letters, the point of view is very partial. She is obsessed wither her lover and their erotic relationship, and at first, Charles seems to reciprocate her feelings, only to slowly fade away from the relationship at a later point.
I'm afraid that after the first 5 letters, it all seemed the same to me...
I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
