"L'homme couvert de femmes" by Pierre Drieu La Rochelle is a novel that follows Gille, the author's alter ego, through a series of fleeting romantic encounters. Women easily surrender to Gille's approaches, yet none capture his lasting interest beyond brief moments of illusion that quickly turn to disillusionment. At the center is Finette, a woman nearing forty with a failed marriage and a circle of aimless bourgeois friends. Gille feels both repulsion and attraction, trapped in a cycle of failed relationships and perpetual loneliness. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
