The Man Who Planted Trees
Jean Giono’s short story about a treeplanting hermit in the south of France is a parable of restoration. The oaks and beeches sown by this one man over forty years transform an entire region which had been degraded by deforestation. The animated film of this inspiring story is not just good, it’s excellent – winning an Oscar in 1987. Frederic Back’s drawing is soft, shimmering, and uses a point of view that’s constantly in motion.
[Richard Nilsen, Whole Earth Ecolog p.35]
This story has also been made into a wonderful book with striking wood engravings by Michael McCurdy. The hardback version in particular is a treasure both for its subject matter and its high quality of production.
