Produktinformationen "The Song Of The World"
Of Sailor's twin sons the elder is dead and the younger is missing.A simple woodsman Sailor resolves to find the boy fearing the worst.Soon after he and his friend Antonio set off they stumble across a blind girl giving birth. This strange circumstance proves typical of their journey into the heart of the forest. Sailor and Antonio discover that though the lost Twin is alive he is the target of a manhunt. As Sailor and Antonio attempt to rescue Twin the adventures unravel at a breathtaking speed. The net tightens around the three men until one of them is trapped and killed. And only then does the real action of this remarkable picaresque novel begin. In Giono's universe no murder shall go unavenged. This tale of primitive love and vendetta is cast in a timeless landscape of river mountain and forest. With its taut fast-paced story and pastoral setting The Song of the World is another triumph from the celebrated author of The Man Who Planted Trees.
