First published in 2008. In this fascinating book, the writer George Sand recounts the story of her 1838 winter in Majorca, a winter she passed in the company of Frederick Chopin. In it she describes the natural beauties of Majorca as well as the rumblings of approaching war. A preface by Luis Ripoll, an expert on the loves of Chopin and Sand, helps the reader to appreciate the significance of this unique work.
