Description
""Maria Chapdelaine"" is a classic novel by French-Canadian author Louis H�����mon. Set in the early 20th century, the story follows the eponymous Maria Chapdelaine, a young woman living with her family in the remote wilderness of Quebec's Lake St. John region. Maria is courted by three suitors, each representing a different way of life: Fran�����ois Paradis, a lumberjack; Lorenzo Surprenant, a farmer; and Eutrope Gagnon, a trapper. As she struggles to choose between them, Maria must also confront the harsh realities of life in the wilderness, including the dangers of the harsh winter and the threat of economic hardship. Through Maria's experiences, H�����mon explores themes of tradition, modernization, and the struggle to maintain cultural identity in the face of change. ""Maria Chapdelaine"" is a timeless tale of love, loss, and the enduring spirit of the human heart in the face of adversity.His face was still smooth as a child's, with immature features and guileless eyes, and one not knowing him would probably have been surprised to hear him speak with all the deliberation of an older and experienced man, and to see him everlastingly charging his wooden pipe; but in the Province of Quebec the boys are looked upon as men when they undertake men's work, and as to their precocity in smoking there is always the excellent excuse that it afford some protection in summer against the attacking swarms of black-flies, mosquitos and sand-flies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
