When each shall labor for all, and all for each, how light will be the toil, how fair our life!" "Yes, my profession, in that case, would be one of the most elegant!" said the miller, with a smile of quick intelligence. "Grain is the noblest of plants; bread the purest of food. My function might well deserve some esteem, and on holidays a crown of wheat-cars and bluebells might be wreathed around poor Grand, -Louise, to whom no one pays any attention now; but what would you have? In these days of ours, as M. Bricolin says, I am only a mercenary in his employ, and he says of me; 'A man like him think of mv daughter! A wretch who grinds the grain, when it is I who sow the sepo and possess the earth!' A fine difference, nevertheless! My hands are cleaner than his are with turning over manure; that is all.

The romantic and rebellious novelist George Sand, born in 1804 as Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin, remains one of France’s most infamous and beloved literary figures. Thanks to a peerless translation by Gretchen van Slyke, Martine Reid’s acclaimed biography of Sand is now available in English. Drawing on recent French and English biographies of Sand as well as her novels, plays, autobiographical texts, and correspondence, Reid creates the most complete portrait possible of a writer who was both celebrated and vilified. Reid contextualizes Sand within the literature of the nineteenth century, unfolds the meaning and importance of her chosen pen name, and pays careful attention to Sand’s political, artistic, and scientific expressions and interests. The result is a candid, even-handed, and illuminating representation of a remarkable woman in remarkable times. With its clear, flowing language and impeccable scholarship, this Ernest Montusès Award–winning biography of the author of La Petite Fadette and A Winter in Majorca will be of great interest to those specializing in Sand and nineteenth-century literature—and to readers everywhere.
