The Bacheloress (Women in Progress

Book 1)

Monique is an emancipated French woman who leaves home to escape a marriage of

convenience to a man whom her parents have forced on her. She then succumbs to all sorts of

carnal temptations including a lesbian love affair with a singer. The scandal provoked by Victor

Margueritte's La Gar 231 onne (1922), here translated as The Bacheloress, led to its author having

his l 233 gion d'honneur revoked, which only propelled this novel about a brazenly independent

new womanto best-seller status. What was shocking then was not so much the reckless behavior

of its heroine, who is depicted as the victim of psychological torment, but the portrait of the

corrupt post-WWI society in which she lives. Authentic as Monique is, the types of love she

encounters, set against the hostile and contemptuous portrayal of her peers, only amplifies her

struggle. La Gar 231 onne was translated in the U.S. in 1923 as The Bachelor Girl in a bowdlerized

edition, since the passages describing various sexual acts that had caused offence in Paris could

not be reproduced in America, so the present edition is the first unexpurgated English-language

edition. The story was filmed four times, in 1923, 1936 (with Marie Bell and Edith Piaf), 1957 and

again in 1988.
