L'université des chèvres #[nn]

Two figures trudge through deep snow against a spare, wintry landscape — one leading with a walking stick and a heavy pack, the other following close behind with what appears to be a large satchel or case — and Christian Lax renders them with a quiet, weathered dignity that immediately draws you in. Published by Futuropolis in 2023, L'université des chèvres carries a postface by Pascal Ory of the Académie française, lending the volume a literary weight that matches the understated power of its cover. If you're drawn to stories that feel rooted in endurance and the natural world, this one looks like a genuinely rewarding journey.
