Title : A Life of Light and Wind - Christian Signol - book

Summary :

Jean, the foundling, was raised by a couple of illiterate, unsophisticated, and superstitious shepherds. Fortunately, military service will save him from this hell. With the help of a teacher, he finally learns to read and write, discovering the warmth of a real home. Then comes the "Phoney War" on the eastern borders, and the debacle. The beginning of a long wandering that brings Jean back to the South, until he meets Joseph, his friend, his double, and Dorine, a simple heart, who has fallen madly in love with the young man. But as the war draws closer, will Jean be able to escape his destiny?

Rooted in the wild beauty of the windswept highlands of the South, the story of this boy without family, without reference points, in search of a little human warmth and love, is overwhelming. Jean Dolin will probably remain as one of the purest and most endearing characters in the work of Christian Signol, whose sensitivity and accuracy shine through on every page of this great novel.
