«Un Thé sur la montagne» is Paul Bowles's short story collection published by Rivages in hardback (165 pages, in French).
The stories move between misunderstanding and duplicity: characters who lose themselves in everyday situations and fall into traps of fate. The tales range from South America to Morocco, from New York to the Sahara, and show that simple gestures like having tea on the mountain can become unsettling.
Volume 30 of Rivages's Bibliothèque étrangère series. Translated from the English by Brice Matthieuessent from Collected Stories, 1939-1976, a finalist for the National Book Award in 1980.
For readers of short fiction and of Paul Bowles's work, with its atmospheres of Tangier, Morocco, and the desert.
Paul Frederic Bowles was an American composer, author, and translator. He became associated with the Moroccan city of Tangier, where he settled in 1947 and lived for 52 years to the end of his life.
