About This Book

De auteur beschrijft een reis door de Tarn en de Cevennen, beginnend met een spectaculaire spoorlijn tussen bergen en ravijnen en vervolgens uitstapjes per voet, wagen en boot door causses en canyons. Met geologische precisie en zintuiglijke observaties ontvouwt zich het beeld van uitgestrekte kalkplateaus met diepe scheuren, woeste vlakten, dolmens en steenmuren, scherp contrasterend met groene valleien beneden. Klimaat, schaars water, schraal boerenleven en schapenlandschappen worden naast toeristische indrukken en praktische reisherinneringen geschetst, waardoor zowel natuurlijke vorming als menselijke ontbering zichtbaar worden.
