Descriere magazin:
One of the final novellas by the acclaimed French writer Jean Giono , Ennemonde is a winding tale of people living in a hard yet beautiful land. Roads move cautiously around the High Country... So begins the story of Ennemonde , but also of her sons, daughters, neighbors, lovers, and enemies, and especially of the mountains that stand guard behind their home in the Camargue. This is a place of stark and terrifying beauty, where violence strikes suddenly, whether from the hand of a neighbor 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 delectable detours and startling insights, Ennemonde will take you by the hand for an unforgettable tour of this master novelist\'s singular world. About author(s): JEAN GIONO was born and lived most of his life in the town of Manosque, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. Largely self-educated, he started working as a bank clerk at the age of sixteen and reported for military service when World War I broke out. After the success of Hill, which won the Prix Brentano, he left the bank and began to publish prolifically. Imprisoned at the beginning of the Second World War for his pacifist views, he was once again wrongly imprisoned for collaboration with the Vichy government and held without charges at the war\'s end. Despite being blacklisted after his release, Giono continued writing and achieved renewed success. He was elected to the Académie Goncourt in 1954. About the translator: Bill Johnston is Professor of Comparative Literature at Indiana University. In 1999 he received a National Endowment for the Arts Poetry Fellowship for Translation. In 2008 he won the inaugural Found in Translation Award for Tadeusz Rozewicz\'s new poems, and in 2012 he was awarded the PEN Translation Prize and Three Percent\'s Best Translated Book Award for My liwski\'s Stone Upon Stone. In 2019, he won the National Translation Award for Poetry for the Polish epic, Pan Tadeusz.
