Lesereise Bretagne

Wind-whipped cliffs, islands battered by the surf, mysterious forests – Brittany is a wild land shaped by the sea. The Romans tried in vain to teach these particularly stubborn Celts at least a decent language. Two thousand years later, the headstrong Bretons have still not given up their idiom. Stefanie Bisping traces the myths and stories of this ancient European cultural landscape. She follows in the footsteps of the wizard Merlin and the last Duchess of Brittany. In Finistère, at the end of the world, which is only the beginning for the Bretons, she meets the last lighthouse keeper of the island of Ouessant and the guardian of the quality of the famous Breton cake "kouign amann.".
