La guerre du feu (French Edition): La Guerre du feu Roman de J.-H. Rosny aîné by J.-H. Rosny aîné

4.0

Totally forgot as to how amazing this book is.
Took it in a library of hot and dusty summer Volgograd back in 1999 and probably swallowed it in one day.
Still remember my goosebumps from description of the cavemen everyday life fighting for survival, where the fire is being kept generationally , where neighbouring tribe is watching your every move to attack you in the night. Where every shelter could become an ultimate death while facing sabretooth tiger or cave bear and who cares the book is not scientifically accurate by todays 'standards?
It is an ultimate ode to human dexterity and will to live. Something we know is always relevant.
