This book is a singing, dancing, grunting, barking joy – a song to the mountains and a cry against the anthropocene. It takes place in a small community in the Catalan Pyrenees, following the misadventures of a family who live there, and the lives (human, non-human, and spirit) that intersect with them. With one section described by the lightning, and another by a deer, this novel delights and surprises at every turn!
