Perhaps no other of his novels better reveals Giono's perfect balance between lyricism and narrative, description and characterization, the epic and the particular, than The Horseman on the Roof. This novel, which Giono began writing in 1934 and which was published in 1951, expanded and solidified his reputation as one of Europe's most important writers.
This is a novel of adventure, a roman courtois, that tells the story of Angelo, a nobleman who has been forced to leave Italy because of a duel, and is returning to his homeland by way of Provence. But that region is in the grip of a cholera epidemic, travelers are being imprisoned behind barricades, and exposure to the disease is almost certain.
Angelo's escapades, adventures, and heroic self-sacrifice in this hot, hallucinatory landscape, among corpses, criminals and rioting townspeople, share this epic tale.
作者简介让·吉奥诺(Jean Giono),(1895—1970)法国小说家。1915年参加第一次世界大战,1919年复员回到故乡马诺斯克,1935年投入反军国主义的斗争。他于1921年开始文学创作,1953年因在文学创作上的斐然成就荣获摩纳哥文学大奖,1954年当选为龚古尔文学院院士。
