Des femmes qui accueillent dans leur ventre le cerveau de leur mari le temps de reconstruire son corps. Des enlèvements pratiqués sur des répliques mémorielles de personnalités humaines.

Seth is a surveyor, along with his friend Theo, a leech-like creature running through his skull who tells Seth what lies to his left and right.

In the universe containing Seth's world, light cannot travel in all directions: there is a "dark cone" to the north and south. Seth can only face to the east (or the west, if he tips his head backwards). Every living thing in Seth's world is in a state of perpetual migration as they follow the sun's shifting orbit and the narrow habitable zone it creates.
