Her companions were all the great French writers, artists, actors and intellectuals and her life is told against a backdrop and atmosphere of great creativity and style, liberation and rebellion. Colette both wrote about love and lived love to the fullest in the most independent, and often outrageous sense - numerous lovers, several marriages, a lesbian affair, and an affair with her seventeen year old stepson. Colette's France reveals too her deep and personal love.
