Summary

"Corentin's childhood felt like an aimless pilgrimage. Unwanted, he was moved from one temporary home to another, until the day he ended up in the care of an old woman, Augustine. Deep within the Valley, the remote region where Augustine lives, Corentin's life is renewed. Years later, Corentin fully immerses himself in the dazzling pleasures and distractions of urban life while around him the world is on fire. Temperatures continue to rise, causing a permanent drought, and the rivers of Corentin's childhood have long dried up. As catastrophe strikes, Corentin sets off on a journey to find old Augustine."--Back cover
