About this ebook

Grigia Robert Musil - Alors que sa femme est partie en cure avec leur enfant malade, Homo accepte de participer à une tentative de réouverture d'anciennes mines d'or dans une vallée alpine reculée. Une forme de parenthèse, qu'il semble toutefois avoir recherchée, alors que sa vie semble à la croisée des chemins. Subjugué par la beauté du monde qui l'entoure comme par son altérité, Homo tombe bientôt amoureux de Grigia, une paysanne. Une passion tragique, même s'il ne le soupçonne pas encore.

About the author

He graduated military boarding school at Eisenstadt (1892-1894) and then Hranice, in that time also known as Mährisch Weißkirchen, (1894-1897). These school experiences are reflected in his first novel, The Confusions of Young Törless. He served in the army during The First World War. When Austria became a part of the Third Reich in 1938, Musil left for exile in Switzerland, where he died of a stroke on April 15, 1942. Musil collapsed in the middle of his gymnastic exercises and is rumoured to have died with an expression of ironic amusement on his face. He was 61 years old.
