An original and poetic invitation to read the signs offered by nature like a book.In a stunning fjord, Catmarin, a slender and graceful bird, gathers the other shorebirds (seagull, cormorant, guillemot) to share his discovery: they all live in a vast open book, older and more alive than those found in libraries, as ancient as their glacier and as fresh as a breath of air. This book is the world around them. Some see only mountains, waves, trees, and rocks. However, a keen eye will discern that the down of new snow is as soft and untouched as a blank page, that the prominent mountain sets the scene, that the raindrops serve as commas punctuating the day, and that the waves enclose the belugas like brackets.

In this story of a son, his mother, and her Alzheimer's disease, a small Maritime town transforms into the loom on which the shared and contested memories of three generations are woven, unraveled, and rewoven.
