dbo:abstract
  • La Poursuite de l'amour (The Pursuit of Love) est un roman de l'écrivaine britannique Nancy Mitford, publié en 1945. Le roman raconte l'apprentissage et la découverte de l'amour de Fanny, qui est également la narratrice de l'histoire, et de Linda Radlett, sa cousine. Il comporte de nombreux éléments autobiographiques concernant la famille excentrique de l'auteur et constitue un portrait caustique de l'aristocratie anglaise d'entre-deux-guerres. À sa parution, il rencontre un énorme succès, grâce à la finesse et à l'humour typiquement britannique de son auteur. Il est suivi par L'Amour dans un climat froid. (fr)
