    Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the artistic and personal experiences of a young man as he navigates his first extended stay in a foreign country. The author's time in Florence, Italy, is marked by a profound appreciation for the city's rich artistic heritage and a growing sense of dissatisfaction with his own cultural identity. Through detailed descriptions of the city's landmarks and cultural events, the book explores themes of artistic inspiration, nostalgia, and the struggle to find one's place in the world. The author's reflections on the beauty and complexities of both his adopted and native cultures provide a nuanced exploration of the human experience of displacement and belonging. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

    Couverture souple. Condition: Assez bon. Edition originale. In-12 broché, couverture imprimée en bleu. Petit manques en tête et en queue, déchirure au mors et une autre au bord inférieur, sans perte, infime accroc au bord de 2 feuillets. Rare édition originale du premier livre d'Alexandre Cingria, dédié à son ami Charles Ferdinand Ramuz. Ce roman, discrètement autobiographique, fut terminé en 1903, publié en 1907. On y lit quelques passages touchants sur Genève - "Au bruit du carillon de la cathédrale qui épelait l'air de Jean-Jacques, suivi de la voix répétée et lente de la grosse cloche, il tressaillit.Plus genevois qu'il ne le croyait [.]cette musique lui avait révélé que le sol l'attachait; nulle part à l'étranger il ne s'était fait ainsi des amis intimes des pierres, des murs et des choses d'une ville". Le titre évoque les mangeurs de lotus, fruit si doux qu'il fait oublier qui l'on est et d'où l'on vient.
