A long, long time ago in a far-off land, a disillusioned eagle owl, a night-living loner, rued the fact that the stars had to disappear every morning. One fine day, feeling that he might soon reach the age where he was no longer well enough to leave, he went off in pursuit of his dream: to find a star that never goes out. To do so, he has to cross the immense plain that separates him from the rest of the world. But neither this test nor those that follow make him give up. He'll cross strange lands, meet all sorts of furred and feathered friends, have the most unexpected adventures, come up against the worst dangers, and will never give up or lose sight of his goal. But is believing in a dream enough to make it come true? This many-sided story has the answer, no matter how old you are... Filled with fresh ideas and plot twists, this story will delight any and every reader. An allegory of man's hopes and dreams, a wild and passionate journey through the imaginary, blending fantasy, reality, and reflection...
