Violette Mariaud – Babette s'en va-t-en guerre (Babette Harbe Gidiyor) – Şahika Kitaplar 1961 First Edition
Description:
This is the 1961 first Turkish edition of Babette s'en va-t-en guerre (Babette Harbe Gidiyor) by Violette Mariaud, published by Şahika Kitaplar. The book is closely associated with the famous 1959 French wartime comedy film of the same title, directed by Christian-Jaque and starring Brigitte Bardot as Babette.
The story follows Babette, a young French woman who becomes involved with the French resistance during the Second World War. Her seemingly ordinary life takes an unexpected turn when she is recruited for a dangerous mission behind enemy lines. Disguised and trained for the operation, she is sent into occupied France with the task of helping capture an important German general. What follows is a mixture of espionage, adventure, romance and comic situations.
This copy has particularly strong collector appeal because the book contains numerous photographs from the film, making it much more than a conventional vintage novel. Brigitte Bardot's presence as Babette gives the edition an additional connection to the golden age of French cinema and to one of Bardot's memorable late-1950s roles. The film was released in 1959, making this 1961 Turkish edition a very attractive contemporary publication connected directly to the movie.
