In 1944, during World War II, Jeff, a thirteen-year-old boy, endures the mockery and cruelty of those around him because of the cleft lip everyone calls a «cicatrice». Unable to defend himself, Jeff internalizes the pain and isolates himself more and more, suffering and making those who love him suffer.

Recommended for young and adult readers interested in novels about childhood, difference and rejection.
