Two friends live a Bohemian life in Edwardian Paris until they meet a beautiful German girl, Kate, with whom they both fall in love

Jules and Jim

Marion Boyars

Jules arrives from Austria in belle époque Paris, where he is befriended by Jim. Together they embark upon a riotously Bohemian life, full of gaiety, color and bustle. And then there is Kate, the enigmatic German girl with the mysterious smile. Capricious, untamed and curiously innocent, Kate steals their hearts in turn, and so begins the moving and tender story of three people in love, with each other and with life. Francois Truffaut, whose film of the novel is one of cinema's greatest achievments, has called Jules et Jim "a perfect hymn to love." Henri-Pierre Roché devoted his life to the arts, numbering Duchamp, Brancusi, Braque, Satie and Picasso amongst his closest friends. Jules et Jim, an autobiographical novel, was originally published in France in 1953 and was followed by Deux Anglaises et le Continent, which Truffaut also made into a film. "A delightful account of people sharing and unsharing each other."?Times Literary Supplement

Finally the English-speaking world can see what inspired Francois Truffaut to make one of his best films. How wonderful to finally have Henri-Pierre Roche's Two English Girls in translation!
