George Sand, pseud. of Amandine Aurore Lucie Dupin, Baronne Dudevant 1804-76, French novelist. Other variant forms of her maiden name include Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin. Born of an aristocratic father and a lower-class mother, she was reared by her austere paternal grandmother on a country estate in Berry. After entering a convent in Paris, she returned to the countryside and led an unconventional life, donning the male clothes that became a mark of her rebellion.

In 1831, after eight years of a marriage of convenience with Baron Dudevant, a country squire, she went with her two children to Paris, obtaining a divorce in 1836. She wrote some 80 novels, which were widely popular in their day, supporting herself and her children chiefly by her writing. Her earlier novels were romantic; later ones often expressed her serious concern with social reform. Her liaisons-with Jules Sandeau, Musset, Chopin, and others-were open and notorious, but were only part of her life. She demanded for women the freedom in living that was a matter of course to the men of her day.

Author: André Maurois

Reviews:
‘A long time ago I heard about a writer who loved to dress in men’s clothes because she loved the freedom. I immediately felt identified because I always loved my jeans and hated those frilly silly dresses my mom bought for me.

Later I saw a movie about her life and liked the portrayal of her personality.

Then, when I was in college I was perusing the library when I found her biography so I had to read it. I really liked it because I got more insight as to her background and her motives.‘ – Goodreads review
