The Loving and the Daring (The Illusionist)
Françoise Mallet

‘A compelling novel of secret love.’
‘FIRST LOVE AFFAIR. ‘Francoise Mallet, here tells the story of the first love affair of a girl of 15 in a French provincial town…The book centers in a relationship that must generally be considered unnatural and for Tamara is frankly perverse. Francoise Mallet writes about it with a directness and simplicity that few, I think, will find offensive and many, moving and enlightening.’ -New York Herald Tribune. A taut, sensitively written novel of a strange emotional alliance that introduces a brilliant new fiction talent to American readers in 20-year-old Francoise Mallet – already a smash-hit in France.’ -Back cover
