Writing in his native language, French, Abdon Gibrat remembers growing up in the Oriental Pyrenees in the 1870s and 1880s, also describing his experiences adapting to a new life in the Northern provinces of Argentina. Interweaving Abdon's manuscript and original poems with his family's memories, the author brings to life, through several voices, Abdon's devotion to his native land and culture, as well as his descendants' progressive assimilation in the New World.
