In the distant future, the final world war and its aftermath kill everybody on Earth - except a baby born at the very end. This last human grows up all alone. There is no one to tell him what is possible and what is not. So, to him everything is. He can do all, but knows nothing.
At eleven years of age, he is found by a Cardinal of the Galactic Church who wants to make this formidable boy the Pope. But the present Pope has other plans. Also, there is no way of knowing what the boy really wants to do. This book won a Scandinavian competition for young adult fiction in 1979. Now, almost 50 years later, it has been edited and translated into English by the author.
