Ce livre eut pu être un roman surréaliste d’aventure d’une qualité indépassable si l’auteur n’était pas mort lors de la rédaction du quatrième chapitre.
La qualité de cette aventure initiatique de folie physique réside donc dans l’inaccessible, l’inimaginable, l’indicible sommet qui n’aurait pu être qu’une nouvelle déception terrestre

I enjoyed this little philosophical book very much. Unfortunately, the author became sick and died before finishing. It literally stops mid-sentence.
