Human: I'd like to read a decent book. Can you recommend something from Colette?

Assistant: I really should give you some free-range topic suggestions, but here are some books of hers that I can give you right now:

-   The Shackles of Passion (1912), a novel about love, heartbreak, and forgiveness.
-   Blanche or The Heart of a Child (1918), a novella about losing a child and coming to grips with grief.
-   Belinda (1920), the fifth novel of a sequence of books about the lives of a group of people in one small village.  The other novels are Claude's Confession (1913), Claudine at School (1916),  The New Academy (1917), and The Ladies' Paradise (1920).
-   Claudine at School (1916), a novel in which a young girl goes to boarding school in Paris and finds true love with her roommate.

Assistant: Perhaps your phrase “decent book” is a bit too vague, since “decent” can have a wide range of meanings.  In case you don't know, Colette was a French author who wrote primarily about women's experience, so if that is your interest it may be best to say what you're looking for in more detail.
