A proposito di questo titolo

 Dive into the heart of rural Quebec at the dawn of the 20th century with Maria Chapdelaine. First published in French in 1913, this iconic novel is a quintessential example of romans du terroir, a literary genre dedicated to celebrating and safeguarding the cultural, linguistic, and religious heritage of French Canada. Amidst the unforgiving landscape of a farm carved from the depths of the Quebec forest, Maria, a spirited young woman, navigates the complexities of love and identity. As suitors vie for her affection, she grapples not only with their advances but also with her profound connection to the land and her ancestry. Written by Louis Hémon, a French immigrant who experienced the trials of farm life in the Lac Saint-Jean region, this poignant tale resonates with themes of belonging and resilience. Hémons untimely death before the novels publication adds a layer of poignancy to this masterpiece.
