In an uninhabited region of Provence, a solitary shepherd plants trees, thousands of trees. This is the story of Elzéard Bouffier, a silent mountain man who, without expecting any recognition in return, transforms the landscape around him. With an extraordinary simplicity that reminds us of The Little Prince, Giono presents us with the portrait of a character who moves us without even opening his mouth, and who testifies to the enormous value of a gesture as simple as planting an acorn and waiting for it to grow. And repeat it thousands of times…
Jean Giono was a French writer who wrote works of fiction mostly set in the Provence region of France.
