ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The greatest French editorial phenomenon in the past few years.

Prix Femina, Prix Goncourt des Lyc ens, and Prix Landerneau.

One day, a boy is born into a family. His dark eyes dance, lost in the emptiness. He is a vulnerable being that will never learn to walk, a misfit who draws an invisible line between his relatives and everyone else.

This is the story of a boy born at his family home in Cevenas, in the midst of a mighty nature and protective mountains, of his childhood's upheavals, and his relationship with his siblings. With the eldest brother, fused with the youngest, attaching himself to him, surrendering himself to him, loosing himself in him. With the youngest sister, in whom dislike, anger, and rejection are rooted, directed towards a being who absorbs their parents' joy and the energy of the eldest brother. And with the youngest brother, who lives in the shadow of family ghosts that carry in themselves the weight of a reconciliation beyond the past.
