«Claudine à l'école» is the novel by Colette and Willy, published by LGF/Le Livre de Poche in paperback format (254 pages, in French).
Claudine, a bright and lively fifteen-year-old, recounts an unusual school year in a French village. At school, classmates of opposing temperaments converge, along with the energetic headmistress, her young assistant, and the boys' teachers; the group's confidences and small intrigues turn the classroom into a microcosm of complicity and tension.
First instalment of the Claudine series; volume 193 of the Le Livre de Poche collection. The work originally appeared in 1900.
For readers of French classics and school-set novels with a teenage protagonist.
Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette, known mononymously as Colette or as Colette Willy, was a French author and woman of letters. She was also a mime, actress, and journalist. Colette is best known in the English-speaking world for her 1944 novella Gigi, which was the basis for the 1958 film and the 1973 stage production of the same name. Her short story collection The Tendrils of the Vine is also famous in France.
