Felix and the invisible spring

Felix and the Invisible Spring Publisher: Maskelyani Publishing and Distribution Type: Paperback, Regular Cover Publisher's Note: If the wind erases the footprints of the pilgrims, and the rituals conceal the original spring from their eyes, then Ian, a single child in this world, is capable of transforming the invisible, that which is hidden from hearts and insights alike, into a miracle whose effects are witnessed solely through longing. And as Eric Emmanuel Schmitt makes this idea the core of his novel "Felix and the Invisible Spring," he continues his exploratory journey into the depths and edges of the human soul, with great insistence and perseverance, accompanying the reader on a long pilgrimage to another Africa, different from the one we know, Africa of faith, and the first spring of humanity. However, the pilgrim in this novel is none other than Felix, the boy seeking to find his mother, and from there his path leads us to that forgotten spring, and we discover with him the warmth of the miracle. Following in the footsteps of great Sufis, Schmitt here offers us that rare opportunity to leave the realm of doubts, to tear away the veils of fear from knowledge through longing— a child's longing for his mother, and the innocence's longing for its first spring.
