The Boy Looking for the Faun

About This Novel

Because of the war, the nine-year-old boy G was sent to a quiet fishing village to spend the entire summer with his grandmother. The peaceful and orderly life of the boy and his grandmother is broken by a crashed enemy plane. Just then, a strange man who claims to be an old friend of his grandmother comes to visit late at night, and the three of them immediately go to the forest to rescue the pilot. The forest behind his grandmother's house has always been said by village folk to be a place of horror, but the grandmother allows the boy to visit. The mysterious identity of Mr. Strange, the inscriptions on the statues in the Duke's Garden that have been silent for 400 years, the poems recited by the pilot when he was seriously injured and comatose, the garden key shared by his father in a letter sent from the battlefield... All of these may seem unrelated, but they become the key to uncovering the mystery. However, as the war approaches, the beautiful fishing village is also threatened by the war, and the road to solving the puzzle becomes difficult. The boy grows up, understands love, and explores the meaning of himself. With delicate and unique writing style, the novel gives you a gentle, moving, deep and magnificent fantasy world, which is shocking to read.
