Synopsis
Excerpt from Yan
Yan, dans le pays, on prononce Yann, un paysan grand, sec, tout droit. Age soixante ans. Profession laboureur. Signe particulier million naire. Au-dessus des joues, deux pom mettes bien saillantes et bien roses Dans le front, deux petits yeux bien clairs et bien francs. Les cheveux rares, la bouche large, le menton pointu. Sur le devant du cou, deux nerfs très raides et très apparents qui tiraillent la tête, l'un à droite, l'autre à gauche; deux nerfs qui semblent, à chaque instant, devoir crever la peau. Sur tout le reste de la figure, cette teinte basanée et noble qui est la teinte de la terre du pays.
