Title : Chance - Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio - Book

Summary :

"At daybreak, as he took his watch, Juan Moguer's gaze was drawn to what he first thought was a pile of rags lying on the deck, to port, against the edge of the deckhouse. The sea was calm, a faint glow lit up a cloud to the east. The coast was already far away, only the high snow-capped mountains glittered in the sun. Moguer opened the cockpit door and shone his torch on the unusual object. In the gloom, the pile of rags unraveled a little in the wind and two large black eyes shone in a small, dark face that looked like a child's." How Nassima, disguised as a boy, boarded the Azzar and what followed. The two short novels (or long stories) that we are about to read, Hasard and Angoli Mala, are separated by fifteen years. It seemed to me that they were talking about the same apprenticeship, about the love of nature, about evil too. But when it comes to bringing them together, I'm no longer sure which one is the mirror of the other. JMG Le Clézio.
