«Un hiver à Majorque» is George Sand's travelogue, published by Palma de Mallorca in paperback, with 183 pages and text in French.
Between 1838 and 1839, George Sand spent the winter in Mallorca and recorded in these pages her experiences on the island: the Majorcan landscapes, the people and their traditions, along with her own reflections and personal impressions. A narrative that blends travel writing with the intimate gaze of its author on nineteenth-century Mallorca.
The work was originally published in 1842; this French edition includes black-and-white illustrations.
It will appeal to readers of travel literature and to those who wish to discover nineteenth-century Mallorca through the eyes of George Sand.
Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin de Francueil, best known by her pen name George Sand, was a French novelist, memoirist and journalist. Being more renowned than either Victor Hugo or Honoré de Balzac in Britain in the 1830s and 1840s, Sand is recognised as one of the most notable writers of the European Romantic era. She has more than 50 volumes of various works to her credit, including tales, plays and political texts, alongside her 70 novels.
