Ramuntcho (1903)

Ramuntcho is a novel written by French author Pierre Loti and was first published in 1903. The story is set in the Basque country of France and follows the life of a young shepherd named Ramuntcho. He falls in love with a beautiful Basque girl named Gracieuse, but their love is forbidden due to their different social classes. Ramuntcho's life is further complicated by his involvement with the Basque separatist movement and his desire to leave his rural life behind and explore the world. The novel is a vivid portrayal of the Basque culture and traditions, as well as a commentary on the changing times and social upheavals of early 20th century France. Loti's prose is lyrical and poetic, and he captures the beauty and simplicity of rural life with great skill. Ramuntcho is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers with its timeless themes of love, loss, and the search for identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
