About This Item
London : Weidenfeld & Nicolson, (1971). First edition in English of "Un Peu de Soleil dans l'Eau Froide". Troubled Parisian journalist at the point of despair escapes to the country, where he meets a new and extremely respectable married woman. "A sad love story set in Paris and Limoges, told with brevity, compassion and elegance. Sagan misses nothing" (Daily Mirror, 4th November 1971). "It is when love becomes immoderate that tragedy enters". Post 8vo (21cm). [vi],184,[ii]pp. Original dark green boards, lettered in gilt; just slightly bruised; a few edge spots, but a very good copy in the Bruce Pinkard dust-jacket - the jacket good with some minor edge-wear, and three short repaired tears and minor creasing on rear panel. A decent copy of a scarce book.
