The Frost on his Shoulders

In the 1930s, in an isolated valley of the Pyrenees Mountains, an aging teacher reconstructs a bloody and tragic event that seem destined to remain forever hidden behind a wall of collective silence. He alone can penetrate appearances and grasp the iron laws determining the lives of all those who live in the place—this valley where nature is miserly and leaves little room for poetic contemplation or an excess of feelings. He alone remembers his protégé, Ramon, a shepherd who, no more that a child, fell in love with Alba, the only daughter of the region's most powerful and influential landowner. The rich and powerful conspire to thwart the love between Ramon and Alba, and in doing so they incited a feud that will extend beyond all reason. Thus begins a vigorous, dramatic story of rebellion. With echoes of timeless fairy tales and Shakespearean tragedy, masterfully told, The Frost on his Shoulders is a moving and captivating account of the power of human emotions, and also an allegorical depiction of Spain on the eve of the Civil War.

Certains disent qu’il ne se passe jamais rien dans ce petit village des Pyrénées espagnoles. Et pourtant... À la veille de la guerre civile, Ramón et Alba tombent follement amoureux. Un amour impossible, interdit : jamais le plus pauvre des bergers n’obtiendra la main de l’héritière de la plus riche famille. Mais Ramón jure de rassembler le montant de la dot, et se fait contrebandier. Il devient Desesperado, l’homme du peuple qui se dresse contre les puissants. Bientôt, des deux côtés de la montagne résonne l’écho de ses exploits. Puis de sa soif de vengeance. Conte populaire et fable politique, Du givre sur les épaules est une épopée brute comme un sentier scintillant dans la nuit, un petit chef-d’œuvre de suspense. « Un texte magnifique digne des plus belles tragédies antiques. » La Croix

Hace 5.000 años un hombre cambió el mundo con un simple punzón y unas toscas tablillas de barro... Uruk, Sumeria, 3000 a. C. Dingir era sólo un niño cuando su padre ofendió sin querer a la despiadada diosa Inanna, llevando la desgracia a su familia. A partir de ese momento el muchacho creció apartado de los suyos, criado por unos extraños y sometido a crueles torturas en la escuela. Pero con los años, aquel joven tímido y asustadizo se convirtió en un concienzudo contable, encargado de custodiar las bullas, las vasijas de barro que simbolizan la deuda del rey con el templo, gobernado por la maligna sacerdotisa Sheleput. Ésta, que nunca ha perdonado a Dingir por la afrenta de su p...
