"Colas Breugnon" is a charming romance of life in Burgundy three hundred years ago. It is an "autobiographical" novel, the story being told in the first person by Colas, who reviews his fifty years of life, and describes all its joys and sorrows.
In this work, written during World War I, Rolland contrasts the destructive hatred with the joy of life, humor, and solidarity. Kola is a kind of Burgundian Falstaff or Rabelais' Gargantua – rough but noble, earthly but deeply humane.
The novel is woven from memories of youth, with a refreshing recall of events as if they happened yesterday.
The Bookseller's Promise is the third book in the Cliff Janeway series by the award-winning John Dunning, an unusually talented and unique American writer.
