A stunning monologue that strips bare the passions of love under the hands of Poulenc on a text by Cocteau, a moving "lyric tragedy" that gives the lion’s share to solo voice … It takes an amazing voice, and an exceptional presence, all of which  Camille Poul has in spades, to inhabit the role of this abandoned woman who, on the telephone, alone in the chaotic disorder of her room, desperately seeks to lure back the lover who has abandoned her.
