A timeless story between foundational tale and myth When Salina
dies, it falls to her youngest son to tell her story, a story of
violence and suffering, vengeance and passion. Exiled three times,
the first time as a new-born abandoned outside a village by a
mysterious horseman, Salina was taken in and raised by a clan that
only ever saw her as a stranger and an enemy to be defeated. Three
times a mother, her children born from strife, Salina never knew
love, and revenge became her reason to live. For her to gain
admittance to the cemetery, to a place of peace at last, Salina's
son must face up and tell the tale of Salina's ordeals-her rape the
most harrowing-in minute detail. He has no choice but to give voice
to all the hardship that for years fed into Salina's rage. With
this short novel set in an ancestral world, Laurent Gaude explores
a narrative space where time flows to rhythmic rituals, where fate
blurs to legend, and secrets become myth.
