Oh great! Another 18th Century French Author I should probably read,
as I probably will Verne (at least I can count him as an SF author!).
I will make a note. But I may take a break with something else first.
Perhaps the Well of Souls series.

Note: I recall hearing about George Sand, and may even have heard that
she was a woman, but she was not in my mind when I made my assertion
above.
