Les contes du vent d’autan et autres récits de chasse is a collection of hunting stories written by Claude Castres. First published in paperback on March 12, 2002 by Anne Carrière, the volume brings together a series of narratives that evoke the traditions, landscapes, and experiences associated with the hunt in southwestern France. The title refers to the wind from the Autan, a regional meteorological phenomenon that often accompanies the seasons of the chase. Through vivid recollections and anecdotal detail, Castres offers readers a glimpse into the cultural rites and personal reflections that surround this age‑old practice. The work spans 320 pages and is identified by ISBN‑10 2843371813 and ISBN‑13 9782843371813. While the text does not appear to belong to a specific genre beyond nonfiction, its focus on outdoor pursuits and regional life makes it of interest to readers of sporting literature, memoir, and French regional culture.
