The Vagabond

Name: The Vagabond
Availability: OutOfStock

Colette

Largely autobiographical, Colette's novel, The Vagabond, speaks to early stage feminism and women's struggle to thrive in the early 20th century patriarchy.

After a shattering marriage and divorce, Renee Nere is supporting herself as a music-hall artist and confronting the conflicting passions of sex, love, and career. One of the best, most passionate, funniest, saddest, and richly romantic of the great Colette's novels. She's timeless and a must read!
