Ugo Bienvenu s'empare du beau roman de David Vann, prix Médicis étranger 2010, pour en tirer un objet laconique et profond, où le temps, les peurs, les sentiments flottent comme la buée d'un souffle dans l'hiver d'Alaska. Une relecture haletante du livre original. Un huis clos hypnotique au cœur d'une nature indifférente aux minuscules destinées humaines.
