«Milarepa» is the philosophical tale by Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt, published by Le Livre de Poche in paperback (84 pages, in French).
Simon has the same dream every night until a woman reveals to him that he is the reincarnation of the uncle of Milarepa, the 11th-century Tibetan hermit. To escape the cycle of rebirths, he must tell the story of the sage Milarepa and the spiteful Svastika. The tale blends dream and reality and asks what a fulfilling life is.
The edition includes the text «Ce que le bouddhisme nous apporte...» and is part of «Le Cycle de l'invisible», of which it is the first instalment.
For adult readers interested in spirituality and contemporary French fiction.
Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt is a Franco-Belgian playwright, short story writer and novelist, as well as a film director. His plays have been staged in over fifty countries all over the world.
