Publisher Description

Claudine is the prettiest, smartest and wildest girl in her class. A mischievous 15-year-old who delights in rollicking through the dusty corridors of a parochial school in provincial France, Claudine manipulates her less-astute classmates and her feeble-minded professors. This vivid, honest portrait of adolescent life in turn-of-the-century Montigny was shocking to some readers when it first appeared. Today the novel still sparkles with the freshness and edge that excited readers almost 100 years ago.

"Claudine at School: Claudine gets an education and then some. Claudine in Paris: Romance etc. Claudine Married: Trouble in paradise. Claudine and Annie: Should be titled 'Annie and Claudine'. Love readiing Colette, maybe I'll try 'Gigi' next. "

    " Loved Claudine at School and Claudine in Paris. Couldn't get through the other two - lost charm. "

    " B At times, I loved this book. At other points, I wanted to give it up. I'm glad I made it through, but not sure if I'll attempt additional Colettes in the future. "

    " Actually re-reading this. It's fun and I need something easy since I'm so busy at work. And I'm so glad I did! It is so fun! And naughty in a mid-20th-century French way. Love this scandalous young chick. "

    " I read all of the Claudilne books when I was in my twenties. The character is charming--and I liked these books more than the Gigi book. I don't remember much about the books, but am thinkingIi want to read them again.... "

    " This volume is four novels in one, and I've just read the first book, Claudine at School. Colette's first novel, it's fresh, provocative, very French, and very Colette. Claudine is a fiery heroine, hell-bent on her own way and her own life. "

    " Still in the process of reading. Great first book, Claudine at School. In the middle of Claudine in Paris, not as great but still a page turner. "

    " I've probably read this five times now. The book is so....sexy. That's the only way to say it. It's a damn sexy book. "

    " My favorite books of late. Such a good read! Wonderfully written and a completely likable, charismatic protagonist. I eagerly wait until enough time has past that I can read them again. "

    " I loved this; I read it as an introduction to Colette and I love her! I can't wait to read more of her books. Colette is so melodramatic, but I am a bit of a dramatist myself and can get lost in her mania. "

    " One of the greatest writer of the French language. Not sure how it translates in English. All of Colette's novels are fabulous, but this serie of books about a wonderfully adventurous and slightly perverse young girl is an absolute delight. Very French! "
