Original song-sounds and sound reminiscences

New article by Audrey Coudevylle in Europe magazine on Colette

Colette speaks to us today more than ever. Her freedom to think, to act, to feel, enabled her to offer our literature new female characters and to tackle themes hitherto ignored by the novelists of her time. Colette's world is our own, but seen through the richness of its senses. In an age when our ties with nature have been severed and the power of death seems to be taking precedence over the power of life, rereading Colette could well be a salutary act.
