About This Item
London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1988. A first edition, first printing published by Weidenfeld and Nicolson in 1988. A near fine book without inscriptions in a near fine unclipped wrapper. "Betty Blue" (original French title: "37°2 Le Matin") is a novel by French author Philippe Djian, published in 1986. The story revolves around Zorg, an aspiring writer and handyman, and Betty, a passionate and unpredictable woman with a troubled past. They fall deeply in love and embark on a tumultuous, intense relationship filled with emotional highs and lows. Betty's mental instability leads to destructive behaviour, and Zorg must grapple with his love for her and the challenges she presents. The novel explores themes of love, obsession, and the complexities of human relationships, often in a raw and explicit manner. It has been adapted into a popular French film of the same name, directed by Jean-Jacques Beineix in 1986.
