| Annotation |
French author Colette creates a nostalgic portrait of her childhood in the rural France of the late 1800s. The book contains two novels made up of short chapters recalling her beloved mother, Sido, and the village of Saint-Sauveur. The author describes pet swallows that flew to her call and perched on her hair, a spider descending on a silken thread, and the relationships among family members and friends.
