After a hunting accident costs the life of his friend Luzi, Simon spends three years in prison and returns to the village to face the stares.

For readers of French fiction interested in Swiss literature and rural dramas with a sober tone.
Oscar or Oskar is a masculine given name of English, Old Norse and Irish origin.
