Description
"Born Aurore Dupin in 1804, Sand became France's best-selling writer, rivaled in her day only by Victor Hugo - yet she was known as much for her excessive life as for her plays, stories, and enduring novels like Indiana, Lelia, and Mauprat." "The daughter of a prostitute and an aristocrat, great-granddaughter of the King of Poland, Sand grew up acutely aware of social injustice and prejudice. Convent-educated, she became a mischievous, flamboyant rebel at the center of French intellectual and artistic life." "Belinda Jack gives the full flavor of Sand's personality and delves beneath the surface of her life and her age, showing how her art both reflected and shaped her life. Here is a portrait of a remarkable writer - and an extraordinary woman."--BOOK JACKET.
