Résumé

"October Vagabonds" by Richard Le Gallienne is a reflective narrative chronicling the journey of two friends, the narrator and Colin, as they embark on a walking tour from Buffalo to New York City. The story begins with the realization that summer is ending, prompting the duo to leave their summer retreat in search of a gradual return to urban life. Their journey is marked by a deep appreciation for the natural world, as they traverse through orchards, fields, and small villages, each offering its own unique charm and character.
The narrative is rich with vivid descriptions of the changing landscape, the people they encounter, and the simple pleasures of life on the road. The travelers' interactions with the locals, including a group of cheerful grave-diggers and a hospitable innkeeper, add warmth and humor to their adventure. Throughout the journey, the author weaves in reflections on the passage of time, the beauty of nature, and the enduring traditions of rural life.
The narrative captures the essence of a bygone era, where the pace of life was slower, and the connection to the land was more profound. Le Gallienne's lyrical prose and keen observations invite readers to savor the journey as much as the destination, celebrating the simple joys of walking, observing, and being present in the moment.
Richard Thomas Gallienne, dit Le Gallienne, né le 20 janvier 1866 à Liverpool et mort le 15 septembre 1947 à Menton, est un auteur et poète anglais.
