Description

A young narrator steps into a world where the ordinary streets of Paris intersect with the whispering groves of ancient myth. Contemporary friends and lovers find themselves drawn into encounters with nymphs, sirens, and other timeless beings, blurring the line between reality and imagination. The opening sets a tone of wonder, inviting listeners to follow the characters as they question what is possible in a world that still hears the songs of the sea.

The novel weaves lyrical reflections on art, nature, and the restless yearning that drives every heart. It ponders how each person seeks a larger purpose—whether through love, creativity, or communion with the unseen. As the story unfolds, the characters’ curiosity and yearning for something beyond the everyday promise both gentle humor and a deeper, poetic exploration of what it means to believe in the invisible.

About the author

Auguste Gilbert de Voisins

Auguste Gilbert de Voisins

1877–1939

A French novelist and poet drawn to adventure, symbolism, and the stranger edges of inner life, he moved in the literary world around Victor Segalen while also chasing very real exploits such as ballooning. His books often blend elegance with unease, turning travel, desire, and the imagination into something vivid and unpredictable.
