About This Book

Un robuste chasseur affronte une tempête hivernale dans les forêts du Michigan, luttant pour sa survie en allumant un feu et en cherchant un fort proche; la narration suit ses efforts, ses techniques de subsistance et ses observations, puis met en scène des compagnons et la découverte d'une femme indigène affamée qui suscite un débat sur l'aide à lui apporter. Le récit mêle descriptions du désert forestier, actions de plein air, relations entre compagnons et personnes rencontrées, et thèmes de solitude, solidarité et tension entre la civilisation naissante et la nature sauvage.
