«Le canon de Lasselille» is a short-story collection by writer Jørn Riel, published by 10/18 in paperback (157 pages, in French).
A racontar is an anecdote so absurd it seems unbelievable, and Jørn Riel collects those told by trappers scattered across the ice of Greenland. One man ends up with a cannon in his hands, another sets off rowing on a whim for a brioche, and among their adventures are distillations of dovecote herbs and an inverted Russian roulette.
The work belongs to the Skrøner series, of which it is the seventh volume; its original title is Signalkanonen og andre skrøner (1988). The French translation is by Susanne Juul and Bernard Saint-Bonnet.
For readers of Nordic fiction seeking tales of humour and adventure in the Arctic.
