Description
Roads move cautiously around the High Country... So begins Ennemonde, the story of the titular woman, but also of her sons, daughters, neighbours, lovers, and enemies, and especially of the mountains that serve as a backdrop to their home in Southern France. This is a place of great beauty, and terrifying vigour, where violence strikes suddenly, whether from the hand of a neighbour or from the sky itself. Giono captures every wrinkle, glare, and glance with wry delight, celebrating the uniquely tough people whose eyes sparkle with the cruel majesty of the landscape. Full of unexpected detours and startling insights, Ennemonde will take you by the hand for an unforgettable tour of this master novelists singular world.
