A young man, 26 years old, doomed by early Alzheimer's, wants to set sail and embark on his last journey. He is looking for a companion to share the adventures of his last journey with him.
Departure: as soon as possible. Duration of the journey: a maximum of 2 years (according to the doctors' assessment). Perhaps less.
Emile decides to escape the sterility of hospital wards and the sympathy of family and friends. And - oh my! - his ad receives a response. Three days later, outside the secretly purchased mobile home, he meets Joanna - a young woman in a black wide-brimmed hat, with one shoulder bag and no explanation. Thus begins their amazing journey. Breathtaking landscapes, unexpected encounters, self-discovery and rethinking - and now, step by step, joy and fear, friendship and love break through the shell of Emile's pain.
The novel became the winner of the French literary prizes Alain-Fournier and Sesame.
