In France, we celebrate Women’s Day each year on March 8th. This year, in honor of Women’s Day and in keeping with the tradition of last season’s Halloween episode, we asked you which female writer with a French connection you would most like to hear from, and George Sand was the clear winner.
Born Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin, but better known by her pen name George Sand, George was a French romantic author who lived from 1804 to 1876, and wrote over 100 novels, plays and essays. She was the most successful woman writer of her century and more popular than writers like Victor Hugo, Balzac, Baudelaire and Gustave Flaubert. She was known for wearing pants in a time when women were forbidden by law to wear pants, cigar-smoking, divorcing her husband, and perhaps most scandalously, her public and plentiful love affairs.
Through a conversation channeled by Eve Gallois, George discusses identity, gender fluidity, what it was like to be a female writer in her time, the glory of pants, and so much more.

About Us
Since well before Victor Hugo looked up at Notre Dame and thought, "Huh... what if a hunchback lived in there?" authors have been inspired by Paris. The Storytime in Paris podcast will help keep this tradition alive with short interviews and readings from your favorite contemporary authors with a French connection.
Every episode will feature five questions, asked by you, our authors' biggest fans, and answered live on air. Then, our authors will treat us to a reading of an excerpt from their book. Who knows? Maybe you'll even be inspired to write your own Great French Novel. Happy listening!
