My name is Imarvaluk. In Inuktitut, my native tongue, it means Song of the waves. I like my name but I no longer like the sea. I am wary of it since a bad spirit bewitched it. The sea has become a monster that slowly devours the tiny island of Sarishef where we’ve always lived…

In a few days, our house will be moved to the centre of the island. But sooner or later, we will have to leave when the evil creature swallows it whole.

Where will we go then?

Jacques Pasquet

Jacques Pasquet is a wonderful storyteller who has a passion for memory – the one traced by his own path of life and the one of the Inuit people he has been close to for more than a decade. He has written around twenty books for young readers, some of which have been published in France and others in Quebec.
