Les chiens d’Isabelle de Charrière




Abstract:

In Isabelle de Charrière’s letters I had been struck by the way in which she spoke about the dogs that had accompanied her during her life. I got the idea to put together those places in her correspondence where she is writing about them – starting by her first dog, Philax, and finishing by her last one, Miss. It was an interesting surprise to discover that Monsieur de Charrière loved dogs as much as his wife did, and that he is writing so nicely about them.
