Chantemesle, A Normandy Childhood

Chantemesle, A Normandy Childhood

by Robin Fedden

  • BIOGRAPHY/MEMOIR
  • 2002
  • PAPER
  • 100 PAGES

Fedden (1908-1977) evokes the landscape, history and culture of Normandy in this lyrical account of an enchanted childhood on the banks of the Seine, originally published in 1964. Fedden (who was later a distinguished professor and colleague of Lawrence Durrell and other heavy hitters) looks back on his youth in rural France with a startling intensity.  (FRN396, $20.95)
