Résumé

Présentation de l'éditeur This novel takes us on a journey, a magical, and a literal one. A tightly knit group of filmmakers travel from Paris together to make a documentary. Unknown to themselves they carry a lot of unwanted baggage - fear, anger, jealousy, love. When they arrive in an idyllic Swiss village ringed by mountains and reflected in a lake, they discover a haunted world that will compel them to confront the demons they have been trying to escape. A mind-blowingly beautiful book, full of unexpected, poetic and metaphysical revelations. Revue de presse 'Okri is incapable of writing a boring sentence.' -- Independent on Sunday. Biographie de l'auteur Ben Okri was born in Nigeria in 1959. He won the Booker prize for The Famished Road, and has won a Commonwealth Writers Prize and the Aga Khan Prize. He lives in London.
