«Un curé d'enfer et autres racontars» is a collection of stories by Danish writer Jørn Riel, published in paperback by Gaïa (213 pages, in French).
In the polar night of Greenland, hunters living isolated in cabins on the ice floe gather to drink schnapps and tell each other «racontars»: real or invented adventures. When a priest arrives determined to impose morality, the encounter between his fervour and the trappers' way of life fuels these tales of humour and survival.
Fourth volume in the series «Racontars arctiques» (Skrøner), translated from Danish into French by Susanne Juul and Bernard Saint-Bonnet, with illustrations by Krag Eiler.
For readers of Nordic fiction seeking humour and adventure in an Arctic setting.
