The four deaths of the old man Longoué, the prides of Rochebrune, the madness of Marie Celat, the resurrections of Stepan Stepanovitch, the War Memoirs of Rigobert Massoul, the predestinations of Artémise and Marie-Annie, and how many other episodes, with a multitude of characters, - the three Anestors, the god of commerce and invention, not to mention these predestined beasts: the mad pig and the consecrated cow of Monsieur Lomé, the wild rooster and the matouchatte - precede, prepare or accompany the drift of Mathieu Béluse and Raphaël Targin, in the Tout-monde. They are the salt of Diversity. They have exceeded the limits and the borders, they mix languages, they move languages, they transbahut, they fall into the madness of the world, they are pushed back and excluded from the power of the Territory but, they are the earth itself, they go to meet us, they see, far ahead, this fixed point that we will have to surpass once again. This novel is an anthology of all the possible kinds of journeys, except those of conquest.
