Description - Marie by Madeleine Bourdouxhe

Thirty-year old Marie is enjoying life. She has a husband, whom she adores with every ounce of her being (and who equally adores her), and she's easily pleased by the smaller things in life - the drag of a cigarette, a hotel balcony, the scattering of light across the surface of the sea.
While on holiday, Marie spots a young man lying on the beach and is instantly drawn to him. Their connection develops into a passionate and intensely innate love affair, opening a window into Marie's untapped desires, which she begins to explore with vibrant immediacy and leads her to question her every decision.
Set among the bustling train stations and narrow Parisian rues of 1940s France, Marie is a hypnotically powerful novel detailing the interior life of a 20th century European woman - with exquisitely crafted moments of sensual acuity and profound insight.
