Work Information
The quiet of the village gradually takes hold and will not let go.
"Le Promontoire" shows how a place can shape a person's feelings and choices. The atmosphere of a Corsican village, the distance from family, and the inability to leave are all held within a style that is concise yet densely felt.

Un livre très poétique, où le temps s'efface et laisse place à un doux songe. Les mots nous portent dans un cocon teinté de mélancolie.
