A finales del siglo XV, en una Rusia asolada por la peste, un joven huérfano vive en el bosque junto a su abuelo, el curandero local. De él aprende el uso de hierbas y remedios naturales antes de emprender un viaje por una Europa devastada por la enfermedad. Allà ofrecerá sus poderes curativos mientras se enfrenta a la fragilidad de la vida y al miedo colectivo. Una novela de atmósfera poderosa, a medio camino entre el relato iniciático y la fábula histórica.
At the end of the fifteenth century, in a plague-ravaged Russia, a young orphan lives in the forest with his grandfather, the local healer. From him he learns the use of herbs and natural remedies before setting out on a journey across a Europe devastated by disease. Along the way, he offers his healing powers while confronting the fragility of life and the grip of collective fear. A richly atmospheric novel, blending coming-of-age narrative with historical fable.
