This Journey of Time faces a prodigious challenge: to tell the story of humanity in the form of a novel. Scroll through the centuries, embrace the ages, feel the upheavals, as if Yuval Noah Harari had crossed Alexandre Dumas. For more than thirty years, this titanic project has occupied Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt. Accumulating scientific, medical, religious, philosophical knowledge, creating strong, touching, living characters, he gives birth to it today and propels us from one world to another, from prehistory to the present day, from evolution to revolution, while the past illuminates the present. Paradise Lost launches this unique adventure. Noam is the hero. Born 8000 years ago in a lakeside village, in the heart of a paradisiacal nature, he faced the dramas of his clan the day he met Noura, an unpredictable and fascinating woman, who reveals him to himself. He measured himself against a famous calamity: the Flood. Not only did the Flood bring Noam-Noah into history, but it determined his destiny. Would he be the only one to travel through the ages?
