Summary:
"This collection of essays highlights the importance of water imagery in the work of the renowned nineteenth-century French female author George Sand. It provides a complex picture of the polyvalent presence of water in Sand's work that encompasses life and death imagery, ecocriticism, fluid kinship, homosocial ties, and artistic creativity"--Back cover.
