Synopsis
The hero of the story, Elzeard Bouffier, spent his life planting one hundred acorns a day in a desolate, barren section of Provence, France. The result was a total transformation of the landscape - from one devoid of life, with miserable, contentious inhabitants, to one filled with the scent of flowers, the songs of birds, and fresh, flowing water.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
"In his wonderful story of Elzeard Bouffier, an imaginary yet wholly believable shepherd, Jean Giono perhaps hoped to inspire a reafforestation programme that would renew the whole earth. The story - both parable and manual - opposes the tree-planter, the earth-husband, to the makers of war." Pp.53, wood-engraving by Michael McCurdy throughout. Paperback. VG. Seller Inventory # 52573
