About this listen

 Iceland Fisherman is a captivating romance penned in 1886 by the esteemed novelist and naval officer Louis Marie-Julien Viaud, who is better known by his pseudonym, Pierre Loti. This intricate tale weaves together themes of passionate love, family loyalty, and the deep bonds that unite a community of resilient fisherfolk. Set against the stunning backdrop of 19th Century Brittany, the narrative offers a glimpse into the unique traditions and rich culture of the Breton people, now at risk of fading away. The English translation is masterfully done by the distinguished French diplomat and writer Jules Cambon. (Summary by Brian Fullen)
