Many remained in San Francisco, helping shape the city and make it French from the inside.

Download or read book My Mother s House and Sido written by Colette and published by Farrar Straus Giroux. This book was released on 1975-01-01 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In "My Mother's House" and "Sido," Colette plays fictional variations on the themes of childhood, family, and, above all, her mother. Vividly alive, fond of cities, music, theater, and books, Sido devoted herself to her village, Saint-Saveur; to her garden, with its inhabitants and its animals; and, especially, to her children, particularly her youngest, whom she called Minet-Cheri. Unlike "Gigi" and "Cheri," which focus largely on sexual love and its repercussions, "My Mother's House" and "Sido "center on the compelling figure of a powerful, nurturing woman in late-nineteenth-century rural France, conveying the impact she had on her community and on her daughter -- who grew up to be a great writer.
