		<description><![CDATA[Colette’s lover Missy / Max (Mathilde de Morny, the Marquise of Belboeuf) lived most, if not all, of her adult life in drag.  Society in the 1900s was still rigidly divided into binaries: male/female, heterosexual/homosexual.  Today, we are lucky enough not to have to define ourselves so strictly, but then, blurred boundaries, fluid [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In Colette’s letters to her lover, Missy / Max, (“Lettres à Missy”, edited by Samia Bordji and Frédéric Maget), Colette often signed off by promising to be good, and sending her kisses and love to Missy and “the children” (their cats and dogs).  I wonder if when Colette said she was being “good”, she [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The “tu / vous” distinction is very important in French, as a measure of intimacy between speakers and writers.  Traditionally, “tu” was used only by adults to children, between close relatives, intimate friends, and lovers.  Nowadays, the rigid distinction is easing, and many young people instantly use “tu” with each other, dispensing with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“Lettres à Missy” edited by Samia Bordji and Frédéric Maget, published by Flammarion (Paris 2009).
Once or twice a year, I give myself the luxury of ordering some books from France.  The most recent shipload included “Lettres à Missy”: a collection of letters written by Colette to her lover, Missy (Mathilde de Morny, the Marquise [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m looking at a famous, gorgeous photograph of Colette in drag.  She is very debonair with her cropped hair, and wears a black jacket and trousers, and silk tie. She has a finger in the pocket of her striped waistcoat (is she being suggestive, or searching for her pocket-watch?), smokes a cigarette and looks [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Colette’s lover from 1905 to 1911 was Mathilde de Morny, the Marquise of Belboeuf (often known as Missy).  It’s interesting how many of Colette’s numerous biographers list only her liaisons with men, simply ignoring her long-term, live-in relationship with the marquise, or dismiss it as part of Colette&#8217;s love of scandalising the bourgeoisie.
