Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Flying Canoe (La Chasse-Galerie)' is a masterful exploration of French-Canadian folklore and the supernatural traditions of the North. At the heart of this collection is the legendary tale of the chasse-galerie, a bewitched canoe that takes flight through the winter sky. The story follows a group of lonely lumberjacks in the remote wilderness who, yearning for their loved ones on New Year's Eve, make a dangerous pact with the devil to fly home. They must navigate their vessel over the forests and steeples of Quebec while adhering to strict conditions to save their souls from eternal damnation.Beyond its central legend, the work captures the spirit, humor, and resilience of early Canadian life. It provides a vivid window into the oral traditions of the voyageurs and the cultural identity of the region during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Blending elements of the macabre with a deep sense of place, the narrative evokes the atmosphere of the rugged wilderness and the warmth of traditional storytelling.
