Status Updates From Sido suivi de Les Vrilles d...

Every time Colette writes a dialogue between her animals, I cringe.

When Colette goes off on one of her tirades about cats, I kind of don't give a fuck.

Colette writes of exile, loneliness, and longing so well. She really is the GOAT.

Damn if Les vrilles de la vigne isn't bomb so far.

Just finished Sido. Was everyone in her family a giant dickhead to Juliette, or....?

I love Colette's writing, but there's something so tedious about it sometimes.

"Trop tard, trop tard...C'est le mot des négligents, des enfants et des ingrats." (41)

This is most likely a confusing and really difficult read for someone who's not familiar with Colette's work. However, if you're reading this supplementally to her fiction, a lot of her philosophy and style can be traced back to her relationship with her mother.

It's really interesting to hear how Colette understands her mother

I’m so done with this book

J’AI FINI SIDO 😭🙏🙏🙏 JE SUIS LIBERABLE (il me reste les vrilles de la vignes..)

Enfin fini Le Capitaine et en vrai c’était bien je pense que ça sera la meilleure partie de Sido
