Summary
The secular and the pious. The rich and the poor. Those with a capacity for destiny” and those who cannot afford it.” Emmaus is a world of stark contrasts, one in which four young menall from proud, struggling families, and all lusting after Andre, a hyper- sexual womanare goaded from adolescence to manhood in a torrent of exploits and crises, sexual awakenings and morbid depressions, naivety and fatalism.
A brilliant portrait of the perils and uncertainties of youth and faith, Emmaus is a remarkable novel from one of the very best writers in Europe.
