George Sand's Nouvelles

by Lisa M. Blair

"Reflections are frequently seen in literature. They often reveal the character's inner self to the character as well as the reader. Taking this revelation a step further, Dr. Blair analyzes George Sand's use of the reflective technique in the psychological development of the principal characters in five of her Nouvelles: La Marquise, Lavinia, Metella, Mattea and Pauline."--BOOK JACKET.
