Sido; suivi de Les vrilles de la vigne by Colette

"Sido; suivi de Les vrilles de la vigne" by Colette is an autobiographical work published in 1929. The book offers an intimate portrait of Colette's childhood in rural Burgundy, centered on her extraordinary mother, Sidonie Landoy, nicknamed Sido. Through poetic prose, Colette explores her family members: her nature-loving, independent mother; her disciplined father, a former military captain; and her spirited siblings she calls "the savages." This lyrical memoir celebrates the people and landscapes that shaped her youth, weaving together memory, nature, and the profound bonds of family life. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
