Descriere magazin:
A new translation of an evocative, Huckleberry Finn -esque French bestseller about a young farmboy, the river where he is forbidden to play, and the adventures that ensue when he disobeys his family\'s wishes. The story of Henri Bosco\'s The Child and the River is straightforward yet haunting: Pascalet, a boy growing up on a farm in France, is told he can play anywhere he likes--except by the river. Of course he dreams of going to the river, and one day he does. He falls asleep in a small boat tied to an old dock, then wakes up to find himself drifting . . . Onto an island where some gypsies are camping. There, he sees another young boy, perhaps also a gypsy, tied up and beaten. Stealthily, he frees him, and the two escape in a boat, then spend an idyllic--beautifully described--week living freely on the river. Eventually, Gatzo, the other child, is somewhat magically reunited with his family. Pascalet returns home, desperately missing his friend and the wild life they shared . . . Some time later, Gatzo, orphaned, appears at Pascalet\'s doorstep: the two brothers, one light-skinned, the other darker, are reunited. (And that\'s material for another story, as the narrator, the grown-up Pascalet, tells us.) A sort of French Huckleberry Finn , The Child and the River is also considered a crossover book, appealing as much to adults as to children. It has sold more than three million copies in France.
