'''''La Chamade''''' is a 1965 novel by French playwright and novelist [[Françoise Sagan]].<br />
<br />
It was adapted into a [[La Chamade (film)|1968 movie]] starring [[Catherine Deneuve]] and [[Michel Piccoli]].<br />
<br />
==Plot summary==<br />
Like many of Sagan's novels, this is a story of lost love. A couple meet and move in together, but the woman cannot get used to his life, his working-class existence. She leaves her lover to return to her affair with a man of means.<br />
<br />
Ostensibly, she is rejecting her lover because she feels stifled by his position in society. But the class differences are metaphor for the quality of the love, with a woman deciding to be with a man who loves her for who she is rather than as an object of affection, merely the focus of a selfish love. She wants to be with the one who doesn't ask her to change.<br />
