Summary: | A rebellious and transgressive novelist of the late nineteenth century, Rachilde often recalls in her writings, in the first or third person, significant events in her “formation”. This key word sums up both her education and her earliest family, emotional and imaginative experiences. These intimate elements have left deep traces in his novels. Indeed, the latter is based on a dynamic of appropriation and transformation of what the author experienced from childhood to adolescence, in particular her suffering and anger, but also learned, such as the potentialities of literary elaboration revealed to her by her favourite authors.
