Synopsis

This novel follows three generations of polar bears, each a celebrated writer, as they navigate the complexities of language, identity, and their place in the human world. From a grandmother bear dictating her autobiography to a human secretary, to her son performing in a circus, and finally to her granddaughter raising a cub, their stories offer a unique and whimsical perspective on existence. It's a philosophical journey into what it means to be an individual across cultures and species.
