About this title: Originally written in Basque--one of only a few written in that language in the last 400 years--this novel brilliantly brings alive the lives of the rascals, innocents, shepherds and hunters who populate a remote Basque village. The story has the feel of a fairy tale and is suffused with the richness of oral tradition: it is a book where play is touched with the pathos of melancholy.
