Publisher's Synopsis
Axel feels he owes the fact that he has transformed into a fulfilled, thoughtful and contemplative man to his 'loving, fantastic relationships with women'. Looked after in the Amazonian jungle by a primitive tribe, he has learnt that 'we in the western world have lost our sense of commonality, of human cohesion and we are altogether faced with a total lack of true, honest and legitimate leadership, which has resulted, amongst other hardships, in a chaotic and senseless multiplication of our species'. Heavily medicated for a couple of years after contracting pulmonary tuberculosis, Axel finishes his business course and is employed by a French trading company in Brazil, sourcing items to be exported to North America, Europe and Asia. Follow Axel's adventures in his global pursuit for true meaning as he falls in love, 'purely and simply', with every attractive or special woman that comes his way in his quest to quench an unfulfilled thirst
