One of the most notable novelists of the Romantic era, Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin, best known by her pen name George Sand, achieved fame for her ‘rustic’ novels, drawing inspiration from her lifelong love of the countryside and sympathy for the poor. The familiar theme of her work was love transcending the obstacles of convention and class, all set against the backdrop of her beloved Berry countryside. She was one of the most popular writers in Europe in her lifetime, being more renowned than both Victor Hugo and Honoré de Balzac in England in the mid-nineteenth century.

SOBRE O AUTOR

George Sand

George Sand, pseudónimo de Aurore Dupin, baronesa de Dudevant (1804-1876), impôs-se como um dos maiores nomes da literatura francesa, criando uma vasta obra composta por 68 romances, e ainda textos políticos, peças de teatro, memórias e livros de viagens. Aos vinte e sete anos já era o escritor mais popular da Europa, ultrapassando a notoriedade de Victor Hugo e Balzac, que muito a admiravam. Conseguiu o raríssimo feito de ser simultaneamente popular e prestigiada, e foi a primeira mulher a conseguir sustentar-se através da escrita. Henry James elogiou-lhe o talento e o «grande estilo», Dostoievski traduziu-a e homenageou-a, e a sua obra continua a ser referida nos livros de autores contemporâneos como A. S. Byatt.
