About this listen

 Marie ne connaissait pas la date exacte de sa naissance. Johannes, le vieux pâtre de Maslafon, l'avait trouvée endormie parmi les brebis un matin d'automne 1901. Il la baptisa "Marie des brebis" et l'aima comme sa fille. Près d'un siècle plus tard, cette même Marie, en sa grande vieillesse, confie sa vie à Christian Signol. Il l'écoute avec passion et nous offre un livre audio qui fleure bon le laurier sauvage des Causses, le miel et l'orange de Noël. L'existence de Marie, toute simple et modeste, rythmée par les saisons et les bouleversements de l'histoire, est une formidable leçon de courage et d'humanité, comme si parfois la vérité n'était jamais aussi juste que dans la bouche des plus humbles.© Seghers, coll.

I enjoy reading Chritian Signol’s books as I have read many. I also enjoy finding old copies and matching them up with the Audible if possible so that I can read and listen at the same time.
As someone who lived in France for some years, his books helped me to learn the language. Marie des Brebis, based on a true story was very moving and gave such a flavour of the region where she lived. I felt very much a part of her story and shed a tear at the end. I Love Signol’s poetic style of writing and his ability to totally immerse one a in the characters and the culture.
