Porté par l’élan romantique du XIXe siècle, Kourroglou révèle la voix singulière de George Sand: une fiction où la passion et l’aspiration à la liberté se heurtent aux conventions qui étouffent. Dans une prose ample et sensible, Sand explore la tension entre désir et devoir, idéal et réalité, peignant des êtres confrontés au regard social. L’histoire avance avec la grâce d’un chant intérieur et la force d’une révolte contenue. Une invitation à écouter une œuvre qui interroge l’amour, la dignité et le courage d’être soi, sans rien trahir de ses secrets.

John Donne, Andrew Marvell, George Herbert, Thomas Carew, and Henry Vaughan: these were some of the 17th-century writers who devised a new form of poetry full of wit, intellect and grace, which we now call Metaphysical poetry. They wrote about their deepest religious feelings and their carnal pleasures in a way that was radically new and challenging to their readers. Their work was largely misunderstood or ignored for two centuries, until 20th-century critics rediscovered it, finding in it a deep originality and a willingness to experiment.

It is a reminder that we often must release what is not ours in order to receive what is, that we are all born with a unique imprint to leave upon the world, and that self-love is not an infatuation, but a homecoming.
