Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Roman peut-être commencé dès 1924, rédigé en 1925, La Fin de Chéri paraît en préoriginale dans La Revue de Paris, du 15 décembre 1925 au 15 janvier 1926 ; publication originale chez Flammarion, en mars 1926. Il doit peut-être quelque chose à un projet de pièce sur Chéri soldat (Chéri sera finalement un ancien combattant dans ce roman), voire à des nouvelles publiées en 1911-1912, dont le protagoniste se nommait « Chéri » ou « Clouk ». Enfin, Colette jouant au théâtre l’adaptation de Chéri entre 1922 et 1924-1925 ne pouvait qu’être incitée à reconsidérer ce personnage, et à lui donner, au sens propre, une « fin », sans parler des possibles répercussions, conscientes ou non, d’une autre fin, celle de sa liaison avec Bertrand de Jouvenel.

At the end of Chéri the young Chéri left his aging mistress Léa on the eve of his marriage. Having served in the army during the war Chéri returns to Paris haunted by memories of his carefree youth and the bounty of his benevolent mistress. In the post-war 1920's he finds it impossible to settle down to a new life with his efficient and entrepreneurial wife and friends. As his looks and his reputation begin to deteriorate Chéri's life is thrown into crisis as he attempts to recapture the contentment and companionship of his luxurious youth. As Chéri and Léa confront each other, and the changes a decade has wrought on their lives and their looks, Colette displays the incredible sensitivity and insight for which she is justly famous.

After reading [b:Chéri|389115|Chéri|Colette|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1325621252s/389115.jpg|18924696] last year I was keen to get my hands on the sequel to see how one of the most dislikable characters that I'd come across in fiction, gets his comeuppance. I was looking forward to gloating over his demise. What I did not expect was to feel both empathy and sympathy for him!
I found the writing in this book to be absolutely brilliant. If it is so good in translation how well it must be in the original French? ( )
