Long before civilization, there were the gods. And before the gods, there was the earth, the celestial bodies, and air given flesh. They are the Anemoi—the Four Winds—and they have been banished to the four corners of the world. Wren of Edgewood is no stranger to suffering. Her parents are gone. Survival is all she knows. For three hundred years, the land known as the Gray has been encased in ice, surrounded by a great barrier called the Shade, which protects the townsfolk from the Deadlands beyond. But day by day, the Shade weakens.

Brielle of Thornbrook has dedicated her life to the abbey. She spends her days forging iron and studying the Text, all in preparation of becoming an acolyte—a shepherd of the Father. Twenty-one years on this earth and she has never touched a man. And she never will. Yet dark things uncoil beyond Thornbrook's high stone walls. A chance encounter with an alluring stranger leads Brielle to Under, where the air breathes rot and the roots grow black. Zephyrus, Bringer of Spring, with eyes of green.

L’Àlex Oscà arriba a l’edat atrotinada de quaranta anys reclòs en una casa de Malanyeu (Alt Berguedà). El precedeixen moltes batalles que no s’han explicat mai des d’on hauria tocat explicar- les, i entoma el repte. Trenant i reformulant històries viscudes per ell i la seva tropa de «pringats» més o menys estimats, anirà emergint davant nostre la realitat dels anys vermells de la droga viscuts a la Catalunya sense focus. Ja veurem si se’n surt, el Lex. Vet aquí una obra mítica.

Daniel Alfals arriba al temut tedi decebut dels cinquanta anys refugiat a cal Pardal, on convoca una reunió d’antics companys de gresca i batalla: el cor de supervivents d’una desfeta general davant la droga. Entre tots reconstruiran el mirall que Alexandre Oscà va esmicolar a Cavalls salvatges. Els miratges de la memòria, particular i col·lectiva, ens retornen a uns espais familiars, però viscuts amb el filtre que imposa el pas i el pes del temps. Davant nostre es va erigint, capa rere capa, una novel·la que depura al màxim la capacitat narrativa de Jordi Cussà.

La escuela del alma es una fascinante invitación para descubrir, partiendo de los cimientos de la educación, el horizonte de una vida madura, fecunda y espiritual. Paso a paso las realidades que nombran palabras como lugar, enseñanza, compañía, atención, mundo, cuidado, contemplación, creación... van iluminando el camino con luz propia, y nos descubren nuevos sentidos: cada ser humano se nos revela como origen y el encuentro, como "un alma que toca otra alma".
