An obsessive and revealing self-portrait of a remarkable woman humiliated by the circumstances of her birth and by her physical appearance, La B???tarde relates Violette Leduc's long search for her own identity through a series of agonizing and passionate love affairs with both men and women. When first published, La B???tarde earned Violette Leduc comparisons to Jean Genet for the frank depiction of her sexual escapades and immoral behavior.
