She also received the Prix Maillé-Latour-Landry of the Académie Française in 1912 for her first book, La Cité des lampes.[1]

She was born into a noble family, The House of Lévis (better known as the Lévis-Mirepoix), and was the sister of writer and historian Antoine de Lévis-Mirepoix.

On May 29, 1927, she married Count Joseph François Marie Jules de la Forest Divonne, thus becoming Countess Jules de La Forest Divonne, though she is most commonly remembered by her pen name, Claude Silve.

gollark: When I work on potatOS, I deploy at any time and all computers update within 5 minutes or so. There's no testing so if I make a mistake which breaks it badly enough that it stops updating I have to fix it very fast. It's called "extreme programming".
gollark: "I was going to delete this user, but I forgot, and I'm actually on holiday tomorrow, so I'll do it next month."
gollark: "We'd like to delete this user, but our policy says that we can't deploy except on Fridays, and we have to run this one line of SQL to delete them through our change request process. We should be done by next year."
gollark: "We're working on it, but unfortunately all the documentation is written in uwu gamer language, so we have no idea how our service works, sorry!"
