«Sur le fleuve» is the young adult novel by Hermann Schulz, published by L'École des Loisirs in paperback (135 pages, in French).
On Lake Tanganyika in the 1930s, missionary Ganse rows for five days with his daughter, ill from an infection that already killed her mother. Each night he stops at villages where the villagers treat her with ointments and advise him to speak to her against evil spirits. Ganse obeys and ends up fascinated by African rituals, while his Western faith wavers.
Novel suitable for young readers aged 12 and up, with a travel adventure and encounter between cultures.
