## Description

With an introduction by André Aciman, author of Call Me by Your Name. At the age of sixteen, Olivia is sent to a Parisian finishing school to broaden her education. Soon after her arrival, she finds herself falling under the spell of her beautiful, sharp-witted teacher, Madamoiselle Julie. Inspired by the author’s own youth, banned by the Catholic Church, Olivia is a groundbreaking, passionate, and subtle story of first – and forbidden – love. 'Perfectly captures the breathless excitement of adolescent passion' Sarah Waters Vintage Desire: classic stories of lust and longing.
