Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. "In Paris the fishermen sit by the banks of the Seine and fish . . . The fishermen have thrown their watches into the river because time stands still on banks of the Seine. The city fades into the silvery waters, and between the waves and the tracery of the fishing lines lies the land of dreams." So begins the tale of Jonah, a Parisian fisherman with a dream to part ways with his fellows and once, just once, catch a really big fish. The book is an endearing fable (with Biblical undertones) about our modern myths of progress and industrialism. Yet the book never exactly preaches. It just putters along at its own pace and quietly suggests, here and there, that maybe the small, the local, and the slow may be the keys to the Good Life. EB. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 61394
