Doppler has just lost his father. One day when he is out cycling in the woods, he falls off his bike. Semi-conscious, he notices that his head has been emptied of unnecessary noise and filled with the silence of the forest. But the fall provokes completely unexpected reactions.
Despite the fact that he has a wife and children, he moves to the woods and lives in a tent. Here he starts a lonely and ardous existence. Doppler is hungry and kills a she-elk – but that leaves him with a calf that will not let Doppler out of its sight. Gradually they become friends, both inside and outside the tent. Bongo, as the calf is called, has to carry the dried meat of his mother to the supermarket when Doppler goes to exchange the meat for skimmed milk, which he cannot live without.
Doppler is a mad, absurd and funny novel, but not without serious undertones and criticism of our modern consumer society.
