Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette : [unknown]

'Pearl's conversation was always full of references to the works of the French novelists of the period, so I proceeded to read books by Balzac, Stendhal, Flaubert, Anatole France and Colette. I had to read the Italian poets in translation. All this was a great joy to me, and, as I have said, a wonderful education.'

Century: 1850-1899     Reader/Listener/Group: Zoe Procter      Print: Book
