The newest addition to Dis Voir's series of illustrated fairy tales for adults, this fantasy novel by Strasbourg-based writer L o Henry (born 1979)--based on the work of Herv Le Guyader, French specialist in molecular biology--illustrates how the rate of climate change far outstrips the speed of evolutionary change. The book gathers texts found after "the Catastrophe," one of humankind's final written testimonies.
