A powerful story of love and war, spanning the political events of the second half of the twentieth century, from the author of The Girl from the Chartreuse.
PIERRE P JU, writer, philosopher and director of studies at the International College of Philosophy, has written four books including The Girl from the Chartreuse.
This is a story of light and shadow, of forests and clearings, of
memory and shame, told in effortless prose, with a beautiful
literary intelligence
*L'Express*
A powerful novel...beautiful prose which offers acute observations
as it reflects on the fragility of life
*Financial Times*
A meditation on the nihilism of the 20th century...But it is also,
as all good novels must be, a narrative, and one that is gripping -
often chilling, but with marvellous moments of redemptive
tenderness
*Scotsman*
