About the Author
Raimon Casellas (1855-1910) was an art critic and historian. His novel Dark Vales is one of the great achievements of early 20th century Catalan fiction. He also published two collections of short stories
Original title "Els Sots Feréstecs"
‘The protagonist, Father Llàtzer, a priest banished for doctrinal heresy to an isolated, backward mountain parish, struggles to achieve personal redemption by bringing salvation to his primitive, taciturn, rural flock. Their mute atavism is disturbed only by the local whore, Footloose, embodying all the forces against which the priest’s reforming mission is directed. Ambiguity surrounds the denouement of that conflict.’ Dedalus
