191329820Paris: Librairie des lettres 1913. Fine. From One Amazon to Another Librairie des lettres Paris 1913 12 x 19 cm broché First edition on ordinary paper. Significant presentation inscription from Colette to the Vicomtesse Jeanne de Bellune "". à Jeannot de Bellune / affectueux souvenir de son amie."" Spine very slightly faded a few unobtrusive pale spots on the boards. Colette and Jeanne de Bellune probably met in 1905 at the Villa d'Eylau where the Victor-Hugo Circle or ""Cercle des arts et de la mode"" convened on the occasion of which the review Le Damier was produced. If ""Jeannot"" recurs throughout the correspondence of the Burgundian writer very little is actually known about her. Vicomtesse de Juromenha this fin-de-siècle courtesan was the lover of numerous intellectual women of the early 20th century such as Renée Vivien or Liane de Pougy who described her as a ""petit gnome."" No likeness of this ""lesbienne des plus cocasses"" Jacques Ars has survived in public collections and the only portrait known is the one sketched by Natalie Clifford-Barney that of an ""ivrognesse au visage rouge et sans beauté."" Books inscribed to her remain precious testimonies of women's sapphic emancipation at the dawn of the 20th century. Librairie des lettres hardcover
191321235391913. Paris: Librairie des Lettres. 1913. 8vo. Original cream wrappers printed in grey and red uncut preserved in a modern cloth slipcase; pp. iv 307 1 blank; book and inkwell device to upper wrapper and title; a few light stains to upper wrapper short tear to head of upper joint neatly repaired hinges reinforced; uniform light toning light marginal dampstaining mostly at the beginning small hole repaired and traces of adhesive to inner margin of front free endpaper and half-title; overall a remarkably good copy; presentation inscription to half-title in ink: 'A Georges Abric en temoignage d'une grande sympathie Colette de Jouvenel' see below.First edition in book form particularly rare in the original wrappers inscribed by Colette to one of the witnesses at her second wedding.Originally serialised in La Vie Parisienne L'Entrave The Shackle is the sequel to La Vagabonde 1910. Reflecting Colette's own life however the tone of the two novels differs markedly: if La Vagabonde celebrates independence and self-discovery L'Entrave turns inward exploring the ambivalence and quiet disillusion that come with love's constraints. In the intervening years Colette at the time of publication married to Henri Gauthier-Villars better known by his pen name Willy had married the journalist and diplomat Henry de Jouvenel 1876-1935 and given birth to their daughter Colette de Jouvenel 1913-1981. She recalled with characteristic humour in L'Etoile Vesper the double strain of childbearing and serial publication: 'The child and the novel were racing me and La Vie Parisienne which was publishing my unfinished novel in instalments was gaining ground. The child announced that it would arrive first and I screwed the cap back onto my pen'. Colette and de Jouvenel divorced in 1924 after she became romantically involved with his son their affair inspiring her the characters of Phil and Mme Dalleray in Le Ble en herbe 1923.In later years Colette was unsparing in her assessment of L'Entrave criticising its 'narrow ending' 'diminished heroes' and 'blessing tone'.Provenance: From the library of Georges Abric editor-in-chief of Le Matin and a close friend of Henry de Jouvenel. Together with Leon Hamel and Jean Sapene Abric was one of the witnesses temoins at the wedding of Colette and Jouvenal on 19 December 1912.See La Societe des amis de Colette online. hardcover
