by Arno Camenisch (Author), Donal McLaughlin (Translator)
The first novel in Arno Camenisch's celebrated "alpine" trilogy is set during a single summer.
The four main (unnamed) characters are a dairyman, his farmhand, a cowherd, and a swineherd who all live and work in close proximity--but this is no "Heidi." Theirs is an existence marked by dangerous work, solitude, cruelty, alcoholism, and sheer stubbornness; but the author's handling of these situations and lives is characterized at all times by affection, surreal humor, and a brilliant ear for the sounds of the setting.Author Biography

He is best known for his award-winning trilogy of novels, beginning with "The Alp," already excerpted in "Harper's," and continuing with "Behind the Station" and "Last Last Orders," all of which will appear from Dalkey Archive Press over the next two years.
