Colette's charmingly smooth style makes writing prose seem effortless, but of course no one could do it quite like she could; even Proust admired her. She wrote so many novels. Where does one begin? I began with My Mother's House. I wanted to read all 25 or all 50 or all 100 that she wrote but I haven't at all gotten to them all yet.
