It functions almost as a stealth language by which God can commune with us as kingdom artists.

JOUR 1. 30 juillet 2018. Moscou. Je rejoins les quais nocturnes de la gare Jaroslaw, mon sac à dos bien accroché et mon enregistreur à la main. Direction la Mongolie. C’est l’heure, il est minuit, comme dans les contes. Il y a deux ans à Paris, j’ai rencontré un Böö, un chamane Mongol. Il m’a donné un conseil : « Écoute le son du vent.
