[China]. Chamine (= pseudonym of Geneviève Dunais). — Vent Jaune.

Paris, Presses de la Cite, (1945), 1st ed., 254,(1) pag., original wrappers with dustjacket. = Novel set against the backdrop of the Sino-Japanese War. The novelist hiding behind the pseudonym Chamine is in reality the journalist Geneviève Dunais. Information about her and her life is scarce. There must be some trace of her time in China between 1935 and 1937. Because to provide us with the description of the Beijing region that appears throughout her novel "Vent jaune" [Yellow wind] published in 1945, she must have lived there.

Dustjacket with a tape-stain and tear in upper right corner and top of spine section; foot of spine jacket also worn.
