Različiti predeli neba

Christian Bobin’s work makes a path between poetry and meditation. He is the author of numerous books in French and is the winner of Frances’ Grand Prix Catholique de litterature. The different region of the sky is a collection composed of three texts, or contemplative sketches: The Other Face, Christ with Poppies and The Distance from the World, in which the author reflects on man, solitude, companionship, and grace. These meditations are written as one keeps a journal slowly filling it with light, with a lot of light. In an era of increasingly cynical, mediatized or sensationalistic literature, the voice is a quiet plea for sanity, simplicity, and a return to the source.
