The Story Of Colette: From The French, La Neuvaine De Colette, In The Revue Des Deux Mondes (1888)

By Jeanne Schultz

Book Overview

The Story of Colette is a biography of the French writer and performer Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette, written by Jeanne Schultz. Originally published in French as La Neuvaine de Colette in the Revue des Deux Mondes in 1888, this book tells the story of Colette's life and career, from her upbringing in rural Burgundy to her rise to fame as a writer and performer in Paris. Colette is perhaps best known for her novel Gigi, which was later adapted into a successful stage play and film. However, this book delves deeper into her life and explores her relationships with her family, her lovers, and the literary and artistic circles in which she moved. Schultz's biography offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and times of one of France's most celebrated writers, and is a must-read for anyone interested in literature, history, or the arts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
