Translated from the French by Ralph Woodward. Original title: Le port des absents (1967).This novel's setting is Princeton University and other places in the eastern United States, as well as France. The time is the late 1940's and early 1950's. The hero, Grgoire, is French, a college student at an American university. It is a comingofage story as Grgoire matures emotionally and intellectually in interactions with his fellow American students and through a love affair with his Aunt Laura. Strong themes are crosscultural communication, and growth from innocense to sophistication. The translator was the author's roommate at Princeton in the Class of 1951. The author died in 1971 at the age of 41.
