A free spirit and a fearless artist: Colette at 150 A century and a half after her birth, Colette remains an icon: a bestselling author, a music hall star, a mime artist and, eventually, an elder stateswoman of French literature. We discuss her extraordinary trajectory with author Emmanuelle Lambert, whose book "Sidonie Gabrielle Colette" takes us through the many faces of the trailblazing artist. We also we take a trip to Colette's childhood home in Burgundy to learn more about how her rural roots fed into her artistic output and her worldview.
