Traduction de L'homme semence de Violette Ailhaud, en anglais, par Nancy Huston - The Seed Man translated from the French by Nancy Huston : In 1852, Violette Ailhaud was about to get married when the govenment’s repression of the republican uprising of December 1851 suddenly wiped out all the men of her village in the Lower Alps. For two years, the women lived in total isolation. They promised each other that if a man came along some day he would be husband to them all, so that their wombs could bring forth the next generation. “It came from the farthest depths of the valley. Long before it forded the river, long before its shadow interrupted the gleam of water between sandbars like a slow blink, we knew it was a man. Our empty, husbandless women’s bodies had started thrumming in a way there was no mistaking. In unison, our exhausted arms left off stacking hay. Glancing at one another, each and all of us remembered our oath. We grasped hands, squeezing each other’s hands so hard that our knuckles fairly snapped – our dream, icy with fear and burning with desire, had been set into motion.” With an Afterword by historian Jean-Marie Guillon, University of Provence, member of the 1851 Association. The Seed Man has been adapted as theater, film, tale, dance, cartoon and engraving. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Born in 1835, Violette Ailhaud died in 1925. She wrote The Seed Man in 1919 – when her village lost all its men for the second time.

While in Mexico on vacation with her ailing husband, Larry, Debi Cartwright receives what seems to be an ordinary seed from a poor fisherman named Antonio, along with strict instructions to plant the seed and share its offspring with those in need. Not fully understanding why, Debi complies and plants the seed, giving one to Larry when seeds finally sprout. Larry is miraculously cured and knows he must now share the seed with others. Enter a nameless rich man in need of a miracle himself, who will stop at nothing, including kidnapping and murder, to gain the elusive seed whose healing powers he desires. Because Antonio possesses the seed, he is a prime target. When Antonio goes missing, his son Javier befriends a man named Miguel, whom the nameless rich man hired to kill Antonio. But after learning from Javier about the selfless life Antonio lived, Miguel is racked with guilt and experiences a change of heart, which prompts him to turn himself in to the authorities. He then goes on to share the Word from his prison cell, inspiring countless others with his seeds of hope. Larry Herndon's The Seed tells the story of a healing seed that represents the redemptive power of Jesus Christ. Travel back over two thousand years with Larry and Debi to find the origin of The Seed that heals us all.
