Le sumo qui ne pouvait pas grossir

Jun is a rebellious teenager running wild on the streets of Tokyo away from his family to whom he refuses to speak.
His encounter with a master sumo wrestler, who spots his potential to be fat despite his slight frame, leads him into one of the most mysterious practices of the martial arts.
Through him, Jun discovers an unimagined world of strength, intelligence and self-acceptance.
But how can he become Zen when he is beset by grief and violence?
How can he become a sumo wrestler when he can't put on weight?Every cloud has a heavenly lining...

Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt's new novella follows Milarepa, Mr Ibrahim and the Flowers of the Koran, Oscar and the Lady in Pink and Noah's Child in the series Le Cycle de l'Invisible, bringing readers a tale about childhood and spirituality that goes right to the source of Zen Buddhism.
