It is the late 15th hundred years and a community healer in Russia called Laurus is powerless to help his loved as she dies in childbirth, unwed and without having received communion. Devastated and anxious, he sets from a journey in search of redemption. But this is no ordinary journey: it is one which spans age ranges and countries, and which brings him face-to-face with a host of remarkable, eccentric people and legendary creatures from the strangest middle ages bestiaries. Laurus's journeys take him from the center Age range to the Plague of 1771, while a holy fool he shows miraculous healing capabilities, to the politics upheavals of the late 20th hundred years. At each transformative level of his journey, he becomes more revered by the chapel and the individuals, until he makes a decision, one day, to return to his home community to lead the life of any monastic hermit - not recognizing that it's here that he will face his most challenging trial yet. Laurus is an amazingly rich book about the eternal styles of love, reduction, self-sacrifice, and faith, in one of Russia's most fascinating and critically acclaimed novelists.
