Meer over het boek
The famous novel by Germaine Guèvremont tells of the arrival of a stranger one autumn evening in a family from Chenal du Moine, near Sorel. The presence of the Survenant completely transforms the life of this small community, which had been closed off from the world. The skillful unknown quickly wins the admiration of Father Didace, who would like to have him as a son, especially since Amable, his only child, is clumsy, insignificant, and lazy. Angélina, the neighbor's daughter, who has never had success with men, flourishes in the presence of the stranger. He departs as suddenly as he arrived, having stirred up great rivalries among those around him. From then on, people speak of the time before and after the Survenant. A regionalist novel, The Survenant is primarily a great novel of love and freedom.
