Sidonie Gabrielle Colette (b. Jan 28 1873, d. Aug 3, 1954, French Novelist)
She had an extraordinary and controversial life, considering when she was born.
I would like to read some of her work, but I wonder how well the material translates to English. I just bought a compilation of three short stores, "Gigi, Julie de Carneilha, and Chance Acquaintances: Three Short Novels". Although I won't be able to comment on the translation, I'll be sure to write about the stories themselves.
My two most foolish (and wonderful) acts this weekend:
1. driving to NY, spending less than 24 hrs and driving back
2. getting into an argument with a goose
Both were completely worth it. :)
