There are twenty thousand years that I love you: La dame de Brassempouy

La Dame de Brassempouy is the story of a loving passion at the end of the nineteenth century in a small village in Chalosse.Coraline de Saint-Cricq, widow, mother and grandmother, in her fifties disillusioned, flees Bordeaux where she was hardly happy, to build a peaceful existence in the countryside. She moves away from everything, her family, her friends, her old worldly life. She is dedicated to her passion for gardening, watercolor painting and local good works. But boredom plunges his daily life into a certain neurasthenia. The village priest then takes hold of this sensitive and vulnerable soul to study and torment it.An unexpected visit emerges that will turn the life of the one the villagers called the lord of the house upside down.Fantin, a brilliant and reserved young man who was once Coraline's prot?g? at the Libourne orphanage, arrives in Brassempouy to assist paleontologists who have undertaken the excavations of a cave recently discovered in the surrounding woods.This novel is about the emancipation of a woman through love, study and work. At the same time, he invites us step by step to follow the discovery of what we will call the Mona Lisa of prehistoric times: the Lady of Brassempouy.
