«Les affluents du ciel» is the historical novel by Jean-Guy Soumy, published by Pocket in paperback, with 340 pages in French.
In the Limousin of 1870, Pierre, owner of the Aiguemont estate, sees his family fall apart after his son's expulsion and the strange death of his wife Clara. The railway line threatens to split his lands: a thousand workers build tunnels and viaducts, and the works near Clara's grave reveal a Roman road. Pierre clings to the discovery.
First published in 2003.
Readers of historical fiction and French rural narrative who enjoy stories of social and family transformation in nineteenth-century Limousin.
