Journal d’un curé de campagne
(Reliure toile ornée de l’éditeur) – L’existence discrète d’un jeune prêtre catholique dans la petite paroisse d’Ambricourt, dans le nord de la France.

Le temps d’un soupir
« La douceur de l’air me fait rêver, à ce qui fut et à ce qui serait si tu étais là. Je sais que cette rêverie n’est qu’une inaptitude à vivre le présent.

But almost nothing turns out as Adam planned. His family’s welcome is cool, and Adam’s rise to the top is thwarted by Bartolomeu Gomes, his uncle’s treacherous clerk. » « As Adam attempts to overcome these obstacles he is handicapped by a certain personal trait. Not, he insists, that he is a coward exactly, but he is inclined to boldly put himself in dangerous situations and then at the last minute run away from them – hence the nickname given to him by friends who had observed this failing once too often. » « While Adam’s mother and sisters wait in England for him to rescue them from poverty, Adam is preoccupied with more compelling women: the beautiful, older half-Portuguese lady Maria Beatriz Hutchinson; the spoiled, rich Gabriella Lowther; and his charming young cousin Nancy. But Adam commits a social faux pas so severe he forever ruins his chances for making a good match – yet no one dares tell him what he has done wrong! » « Adam certainly has a lot to learn. …
