The Pastoral Symphony. A novel by André Gide. Translated from the French by Sigurlaug Bjarnadóttir.
André Gide is considered one of the most significant and influential authors of contemporary Western literature. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1947.
His stories reveal a strong individualism that more often than not comes into conflict with prevailing religious traditions and moral codes.
The Pastoral Symphony is no exception. It tells the story of a parish priest in a remote mountain region who takes in a blind orphan girl - a Christian act of charity. But then he falls in love with the girl - a struggle with temptation and sin.
In a special way, Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony, one of the most beautiful works of musical literature, becomes a delightful experience of colors in the blind girl's mind.
