Biographie - George Sand

LanguaTalk.com
About this episode

In this episode, Gaelle talks about a famous French writer from the 19th century: George Sand. And don’t be fooled by the masculine name, as it was a decoy for this female writer to get her place in the very misogynist society of the time. Come and meet this incredible woman who didn’t believe in gender norms and thought she could be as good as any man.
