Synopsis
The only thing more outrageous than French novelist George Sand's torrid love affair with the decadent author Alfred de Musset and her affinity for wearing men's clothing, was the content of her writing. Though Sand (otherwise known as the Baroness Dudevant) smoked cigars and cross-dressed, it was the boldness of her writing on issues such as the abstinence of marriage and women's frigidity that most contributed to the scandalous reputation she earned in French literary circles. When she met Alfred de Musset, the most gifted poet of his generation, the two quickly became a public cause celebrite while their work would go on to become some of the finest examples of 19th century romanticism.

George Sand, pseudonym of Aurore Dudevant (1804-1876), was the preeminent woman writer in 19th-century France. She came into prominence for the frank exploration of women's sexuality and her passionate rally for women's freedom, which many of her works embodied.
