Three collections of George Sand's writings: her journal to Alfred de Musset; the Piffoel journal, composed of conversations between her masculine and feminine selves; and a scrapbook the dates of which overlap the two journals. This last compilation includes personal letters, reflections and mementoes that were dear to this remarkable woman.

George Sand is the pen name of Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin, Baroness Dudevant, a 19th century French novelist and memoirist. Sand is best known for her novels Indiana, Lélia, and Consuelo, and for her memoir A Winter in Majorca, in which she reflects on her time on the island with Chopin in 1838-39. A champion of the poor and working classes, Sand was an early socialist who published her own newspaper using a workers' co-operative and scorned gender conventions by wearing men's clothing and smoking tobacco in public. George Sand died in France in 1876.
