Summary:

In the spring of 2015, an amateur birdwatcher observes at the top of the puy de Dôme a small bird, the Kurdish whiters, never seen in France before, and of which no one knows how it happened until there. On the trail of the Kurdish Wheatear, from the green meadows of Hertfordshire to the mountains of northern Iraq, the narrator of this story, meanwhile, will cross the shadows of TE Lawrence, St. John Philby, Wilfred Thesiger and other great figures of British imperial history.--Translation of page 4 of cover by Gallimard.
