Colette--the difficulty of loving: A biography pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
I belong to a country I have abandoned, the French
novelist, Mme. Colette, wrote with melancholy of the
long landscape of her youth and memory and its
inhabitants. She had kept them alive on the printed
pages of her close to one hundred books, which with
mixed affections and hard labor she had created
over her career with her pen. Her first book, pub-
lished in 1900 and called Claudine at School, had been
her raffish report on her juvenile village school days.
From then on she wrote of her life all her life,
whipped on by financial necessity, and in 1954 she
died at the age of eighty-one, a living part of mod-
ern French literature. Her three greatest rewards, as
a trio, had never before been offered to a French
female. She had been given the Grand Cross of the
Legion of Honor, had been made the president of
the famed Goncourt Academy and had become the
only woman in French history to be granted a state
funeral--though without benefit of clergy.
