Populated by distant and little-known figuresIrish and French monks, saints, and scientists in Winter Mythologies; Benedictine monks in the Vendee region of France in Abbotsthe tales frequently draw on obscure histories and other literary sources. Michon brings his characters to life in spare, evocative prose. Each, in his or her own way, exemplifies a power of belief that brings about an achievementor catastrophein the real world: monasteries are built upon impossibly muddy wastes, monks acquire the power of speech, lives are taken, books are written, saints are created on the flimsiest of evidence.
