Résumé :
Hélène is studying philosophy at the Sorbonne in Paris, living with a difficult but brilliant young musician. Through working in an accessories boutique in the Latin Quarter at weekends however, her life takes an unexpected direction as her eyes are opened to another world. Her curiosity leads her to New York and then to India, where she learns more about the origins of the products she sold and looks into the issue of child labour. Amongst the sprawling suburbs of Delhi she tries to understand the development of this country which is so spellbinding and alluring. Her quest will lead her on to Darjeeling and the slopes of Kanchenjunga.
This poetic love story unfolds against the backdrop of recent History. From Paris in May 1968 to New York on 11th September 2001, the characters in the story try to understand the values of the world about them, and the implications and consequences of their actions.
- Biographie : Eric Jacquet-Lagrèze, was born in Fécamp (France) in 1947. He spent his childhood in this town on the coast of Normandy in the days when the trawlers still departed for the fishing grounds of Newfoundland. These seascapes and his love of sailing and long sea voyages have provided much of the inspiration for his writings. His wide experience of mountaineering and his journeys to India and the Himalayas are also reflected in both the collection of his short stories, Namasté and in his novel, The Cedars of Kanchenjunga.
