With "The Alp", a loose sequence of scenes from everyday life on Alp Stavonas at the foot of Piz Sezner, Arno Camenisch has written perhaps the most unusual book of the season. It is certainly one of the freshest.--Angelika Overath "NZZ "
With "The Alp," a loose sequence of scenes from everyday life on Alp Stavonas at the foot of Piz Sezner, Arno Camenisch has written perhaps the most unusual book of the season. It is certainly one of the freshest.--Angelika Overath "NZZ "
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 noHeidi. 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.
