Ermine would’ve liked to go to college, leave the mining town where he grew up, and escape the path inevitably laid out for him. But as fate would have it, he must go down into the Bonnemère Pit, the only future that awaits anyone from Marlin. There, in the bowels of the earth, the teen has an unhoped-for encounter with Firmin, who is bright as a spring morning, a beacon during this difficult time in Ermine’s life.

A novel of mining in which adolescence and all the passions that beset it illuminate the pit and the depths to which our lives at times sink.
