Résumé
Unlock the more straightforward side of The Horseman on the Roof with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!
This engaging summary presents an analysis of The Horseman on the Roof by Jean Giono, a semi-allegorical novel which follows the adventures of Angelo Pardi, a young Italian hussar and the titular horseman, as he travels through the South of France at a time when the region is being ravaged by a deadly outbreak of cholera. Angelo's journey is part adventure novel, part Bildungsroman, as he is forced to draw on all his wits, skills and humanity in order to survive, but it is also a profound philosophical reflection on how humanity is plagued by moral failings. Jean Giono was a French writer and director whose writing was deeply influenced by the pacifist beliefs he adopted following his experiences of military life in the First World War.
