Produktbeschreibung
Big laurel examines emotional distance, cultural tension, and desire through the lens of a remote mountain community. The novel's early chapters introduce a fragile coexistence between tradition and disruption, as a returning outsider unsettles established bonds. One figure is portrayed as inwardly tormented and instinctively possessive, shaped by solitude and the quiet codes of the homeland. Their tense relationship is quickly complicated by the arrival of someone whose worldly presence introduces both danger and allure. The contrast between restrained intensity and polished gentleness sharpens the emotional divides that run through the story. In the background, a fascination with the outsider grows into something both hopeful and unsettling. The narrative dwells on unspoken feelings, glances, and hesitations, using silence and space as tools to chart emotional drift. As jealousy simmers and attraction grows, each figure is forced to confront what must be surrendered to remain whole or gain something new. The story unfolds as a meditation on change, longing, and the fragile borders between people shaped by vastly different worlds.
Autorenporträt
Frederick Orin Bartlett was an American author active during the early 20th century, recognized for his contributions to adventure and introspective fiction. Born on 2 July 1876, Bartlett wrote novels that often merged external exploration with internal transformation, crafting narratives that explored both physical landscapes and emotional terrains. One of his best-known works, The Web of the Golden Spider (1909), is a Lost Race novel set in the Andes, where ancient treasures and their mysterious guardians create a setting of intrigue and danger. While adventure forms a strong core of his writing, Bartlett also delved into psychological and moral complexity in works such as The Seventh Noon and The Prodigal Pro Tem, which examine identity, despair, and ethical dilemmas. His writing reflects a broad range of human experience, from dramatic action to quiet reflection. Bartlett's ability to span genres with depth and nuance made his work resonate with readers seeking both escapism and insight. He died on 4 November 1945 at the age of 69.
