Maria Jameson is having an affair—a passionate, lifechanging
affair. She asks: Is it possible to love two men at once? Must this
new romance mean an end to love with her husband?
For answers, she reaches across the centuries to George Sand, the
maverick French novelist who took many lovers. Immersing herself in
the life of this revolutionary woman, Maria struggles with the
choices women make and wonders if women in the nineteenth century
might have been more free, in some ways, than their
twenty-first-century counterparts.
Here, Rosalind Brackenbury creates a beautiful portrait of the
ways in which women are connected across history. Two narratives
delicately intertwine—following George through her affair with
Frederic Chopin, following Maria through her affair with an Irish
professor—and bring us a novel that explores the personal and the
historical, the demands of self and the mysteries of the heart.
Sharply insightful, Becoming George Sand asks how we make our lives
feel vibrant while still acknowledging the gifts of our pasts, and
challenges our understanding of love in all its forms—sparkling and
new, mature, rekindled, and renewed.
