Contes alpins… autrement - M.G. Grosso, L.E. Albrand

Contes alpins… autrement - Maria-Grazia Grosso et Louis-Étienne Albrand

Damian, the companion of the wolves of Vallouise, Gaston, the last miller of the Durance, Gaudemar the lawful knight, Eline who drives Mademoiselle de Rama, Jeanne and her magic stone, Whistle, Chaberton's factor dog, Minou D'Eygliers and the boar of Champcella, so many beings who color the soul of the Alpine landscape.


Stories funny or truculent, frescoes tender and touching, one enters these stories as in a ravine valley which flourishes when the snow melts. Thus the torrent of our memory keeps track of past events.


Halfway between dreams and reality, the tales of Maria-Grazia Grosso and Louis-Étienne Albrand revive the forgotten emotions, symbolic characters buried in our unconscious. The landscapes that we contemplate every day open onto a different world, with unsuspected colors and vibrations.


The authors have created a study group on the history and popular cultures of the Alpine arc. They published "The paths of light" to the editions of Fournel.
