Evan Dara, known for his stylistic experiments, immerses the reader in a world of localized apocalypse. A natural disaster strikes an island—an earthquake that begins once and never ends. Escape is impossible, and people are forced to adapt to a new reality. Through the eyes of a young protagonist desperately trying to survive, we see a world in constant turmoil, where not only all the achievements of civilization and familiar social connections have been destroyed, but also the ability to speak coherently. But are these truly pictures of life after a cataclysm?

Falling at every step, the need to move massive stones to feed yourself, wandering through the forest, the quest to find a map and find an oasis of stability. An ever-changing reality dictates its harsh conditions to humanity, but a glimmer of hope and unwavering perseverance motivate us to rise again and continue our journey.
