As He finishes the world by creating all living creatures, He sets it down on the ocean's surface. God feels a deep connection to everything He has created; every sensation, from the touch of hair on skin to a light brush of skin on skin, comes back strong and vibrant. He revels in His creation and smiles at what He has accomplished.

Ce douzième roman de Véronique Biefnot tient du récit animiste où, dans un univers allégorique, deux êtres se cherchent, se trouvent, se perdent, tantôt animaux ou humains, tantôt masculins ou féminins.

Cette plongée onirique dans l'esprit des différents animaux qu'incarne le protagoniste donne vie à un délicieux conte philosophique où seul l'amour de l'autre, la reconnaissance de deux regards permet à chacun d'exister.
