«Les Jupes-Culottes» is the novel by Françoise Dorin, published by J'ai lu in paperback (407 pages, in French).
Lauranne calls «jupes-culottes» women who, like her, work and live like men without renouncing their femininity or independence. Her encounter with Philippe, a seducer who wants a traditional marriage, tests her convictions; with humour, he tries to convince her she can love him without losing her identity.
Part of the 40th anniversary collection from J'ai lu.
For readers of French fiction who enjoy stories of humour and relationships, with an independent female protagonist.
