Fifty years later, and teaching in the same French Alpine town, Nathalie Quintane delves into the scandal to probe the political order and the failures of a utopian generation.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"html htmlcolor bm-lnkin-0\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"html htmlcolor bm-lnkin-0\"\u003eAfter the social upheavals of the late 1960s, the barricaded streets gave way to self-managed communal living in the backcountry. While it was the school teacher Nelly Cavallero who attracted the media spotlight, countless other insurgent unruly radicals contested the oppressive order, organizing in schools, factories, and communes. In \u003cem\u003eThe Cavalier\u003c\/em\u003e, Quintane paints an intimate and urgently political portrait of revolutionary desires and the rising tides of reaction that determined, among many others, Nellys fate. In part a history and in other ways an autobiography and in still other ways cultural analysis and all the while a sort of literary fiction of the best sort. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"html htmlcolor bm-lnkin-0\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"html htmlcolor bm-lnkin-0\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePaperback | 112 pages | 5.12\" x 7.95\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Nathalie Quintane","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49004919521512,"sku":"9781959708155x","price":28.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0386\/5896\/5549\/files\/m-2026-09-03T211023.374.jpg?v=1788484976","url":"https:\/\/typebooks.live\/products\/9781959708155","provider":"TYPE Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
