Reviews
On Oct 14 2010, ElectricEel said:
Of the three books by Ladurie which I have read, this is the one with the greatest quantity of unsupported limb-sitting. Still, as a somewhat unfocused history of the witch phenomenon is southern rural France, it's not bad. "Jasmin"'s poem itself is in the not-as-bad-as-I-expected class, a pretty little story. (I have only read the English translation of the poem here, neither of the two originals.)
