The Devil in the Flesh
As the First World War reaches its final year, an illicit love affair is beginning between a sixteen-year-old boy and a young woman married to a soldier at the front. When she receives letters from her husband, they burn them together.Intoxicated by passion, they cannot bear to end their affair, even when it causes a scandal among their friends and neighbours. They meet secretly in her flat on the outskirts of Paris, in cornfields and on river banks.
Written in spare, haunting prose when Raymond Radiguet was still a teenager, this semi-autobiographical novel became an instant bestseller and its author was hailed as a genius before his tragic death at the age of twenty.Expressing all the anguish and joy of adolescence, it is a work of startling imagery and subtle beauty. Instead, they hurtle towards tragedy. Translated by Robert Baldick with an introduction by Fay Weldon
