This illustrated biography highlights three pivotal phases in Gabrielle Roy's life and development as an author: her first twenty-seven years, which were spent growing up with her family in Manitoba; her two-year stay in France and England, in the late 1930s; and her return from Europe to live in Montreal. It was in this last period that Roy honed her craft and, through her travels across the country, learned about the Canada she came to describe in ways that altered the course of Canadian literature.

"This study examines Gabrielle Roy's extraordinary capacities as novelist, short-story writer, and reporter. It shows how throughout her writing career, Roy has demonstrated that she is not only a unique Canadian literary figure, but that she belongs to the mainstream of twentieth-century literature. Quietly independent, aloof from cliques and schools, she is guided by her own vivid memories and delicate insights to record truths which are universally applicable.While stressing Roy's difference from her contemporaries and predecessors - both in Canada and abroad - this study cites comparisons between certain aspects of her work and those of other writers where such analogies seem to contribute to an understanding of Roy's achievements." -- back cover

First published in French in 1966, The Road Past Altamont pierces to the heart of a child's world, craeting a delicate, yet substantial network of impressions, emotions, and relationships. In her writing, Gabrielle Roy allowed "nothing extraneous or false to stand," according to the translator, Joyce Marshall. The literary style of Roy, whose fiction reflects her childhood on the Canadian prairie, has often been compared to that of Willa Cather.øThe Road Past Altamont takes a sensitive French-Canadian girl, Christine, from childhood innocence to maturity. Four connected stories reveal profound moments during her early years in the vastness of Manitoba. Christine's testament to Grandmother's creative power, her great adventure with an old gentleman at Lake Winnipeg and her clandestine one with a crude family of movers, her journey through time and space with aging Maman?all these characters and events convey Gabrielle Roy's preoccupation with childhood and old age, the passage of time and mystery of change, and the artist's relation to the world.
