«Courlande» is the travelogue by Jean-Paul Kauffmann, published by Fayard in paperback (299 pages, in French).
Courland, a Baltic region occupied by the Soviets and inaccessible until 1991, appears with its infinite skies, forests, deserted beaches and ruined castles of the Baltic barons. The journey becomes an investigation into disappearance: tracing a young woman from Courland, a grave hunter and a French monarch.
Originally published in French in 2009, the volume includes bibliographical references.
For readers interested in Baltic history, travel writing and the memory of countries that emerged from the Soviet sphere.
Jean-Paul Kauffmann is a French journalist and writer.
