His smell after the rain
14.99 €
Cedric Sapin-Defour wrote a surprisingly touching and at the same time ironic book about unexpected encounters given by fate, which show us who we are and what our idea of the world and love is.
This story really happened. It all started with a small ad in the local newspaper: twelve Bernese Mountain Dog puppies were looking for a home. Thus, Cedric, a physical education teacher and mountaineer, made a new friend, Ubac. From then on, their life together was filled with a special, unconditional love that only a person and his dog have.
The bond between Cedric and Ubac was unbreakable: together they challenged the world, hated separation, loved the mountains and nature, walks in the Alps on rocky, cloud-covered hills, quiet evenings at home... These were minutes, hours, years of real happiness, although both understood that their journey together would be unbearably short. And it was true that time was shrinking as Ubak grew older, for a human life is longer than a dog's. But Cedric would never stop hearing the patter of Ubak's paws or smelling his scent after the rain, a scent that was like nothing else.
