DESROSIERS, LEO-PAUL (1896-1967). Leo-Paul Desrosiers was born in Berthier-en-Haut, Quebec, a village on the banks of the Saint Lawrence River northeast of Montreal. His happy childhood provided him with material for his first work, Ames et Paysages<\/em> (1922), and a job as a government news editor gave him the time he needed to write Nord-Sud<\/em> (1931). Les Engages du Grand Portage<\/em> (1938), generally considered his best-written novel, tells of the ambitions and hardships of fur-trading voyageurs paddling canoes through calm and storm on the Great Lakes and connected waters in the early 1800s. Vacations in his beloved Gaspe, a small fishing village on the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, inspired him to use this locale as a setting for his psychological novel L’Ampoule d’or <\/em>(1951), for which he won the Prix Duvernay. Other works include Commencements<\/em> (1939), Les Opiniatres<\/em> (1941), Sources<\/em> (1942), Iroquoisie<\/em> (1947), and the trilogy Vous Qui Passez<\/em> (1958-1960). <\/p>\n
