TOTEM
Ce dont nous sommes faits
“What We Are Made Of”
“I was there.”
A voice that has witnessed every moment of the world tells the reader of their fall, then of their remaking: stone, plant, animal. A tale to understand what your temperament is made of.
A witness tells how you fell… and how you put yourself back together
A voice opens the book. It saw the world before, vast and full of light. It saw the war that walled it in, the two days when it stopped turning, the rift through which everything passed, and the debris becoming the planets you look at in the night sky. It has forgotten nothing, and it speaks to one person only: you.
It knows what you became as you fell: not just bare, but in pieces. TOTEM tells how you rebuilt yourself, step after step, and why today you lean one way rather than another.
There is a word for this blend. You think you know it. It is on the cover.
A philosophical, initiatory tale in the tradition of The Alchemist and The Prophet. It can be read in one evening and reread for a lifetime. The book is currently available in French, in paperback and hardcover.
Stone, plant, animal: what we are made of
The sky of your birth measured these three materials into you, to the exact minute, the way a piece of stained glass measures the light that passes through it.
Stone
To learn to hold.
Plant
To learn to live.
Animal
To learn to feel.
