XXI Century. A person wakes up in a cave near Beirut, wanders around the city, reflects on lost love, human nature and cyclical history, writes memories of his life.
Neolithic era. A person lives in a village on the shore of the lake, dreams of the most beautiful woman of his not very big world, rebels against her father, hides in the forests, becomes a leader and healer, tries to save his native tribe from an irresistible catastrophe of the universal flood.
Different eras. The person is the same. He does not age and does not die, he managed to see many eras and in each is looking for his incredible lover - the only one for all these endless centuries.
To the philosophical and romantic epic about how a person passes through all world history, Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt approached 30 years. And finally, the “lost paradise” is the first volume of the grandiose saga, in which the immortal healer Noam has yet to see the Babylonian kingdom, the ancient Greece, the Renaissance, and the industrial revolution. Immortality turns a person into an eternal exile and gives a sharp look: Noah looks at things at a very special angle, and his voice turns the chaos of history into a harmonious history of chaos, where stupidity and cruelty are inevitable, but there is always a place for wisdom and love
