Nothing to Make a Fuss About (French: Histoire d'un amour) is a 1953 novel by the French writer Roger Nimier. The narrative is set in Paris right after World War I. It tells the story of a female ex-ambulance driver with a passion for the arts, who falls in love with a disillusioned Austrian painter, while she in turn is adored by a young woman. The novel was published in English in 1954, as part of an omnibus volume titled Children of Circumstance.[1]
The novel was the basis for the 1961 film Time Out for Love. The film was directed by Jean Valère and stars Micheline Presle, Maurice Ronet and Jean Seberg.[2]
