The first novel in Arno Camenisch's celebrated "alpine" trilogy is set during a single summer.
The four main (unnamed) characters are a dairyman, his farmhand, a cowherd, and a swineherd who all live and work in close proximity--but this is no "Heidi." Theirs is an existence marked by dangerous work, solitude, cruelty, alcoholism, and sheer stubbornness; but the author's handling of these situations and lives is characterized at all times by affection, surreal humor, and a brilliant ear for the sounds of the setting.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
