About this listen

From the author of Paris Mon Amour.

Every day in Paris carries proof that love exists, in the air, on the streets and behind closed doors. Just not mine.

The cracks in Clémentine and Édouard’s marriage are becoming impossible to ignore. Her work as a perfumer is no longer providing solace, and her sense of self is withering. Then, decades after the end of a bisexual love triangle, Clémentine’s former lover resurfaces. What does she want, if not revenge? Set in Paris and Provence, this is a beautifully crafted, intimate portrait of a woman navigating conflicting desires whilst dreaming of a fulfilling future.

I don’t understand why there is so much hype for this book. The story goes no where. There is no character development there is nothing to keep you invested. I can’t count the times I had to go back because I zoned out.

Appears the only thing the author had to say was that all marriage ends in divorce. I wish I hadn’t have wasted my time on it.
