Letter to the summer rain, lost forever, by Luc Le Vaillant

The relentless summer heatwave is striking at the heart of social habits, creating an atmosphere of unease that is uncharacteristic for this season. The absence of typical summer storms has generated a pervasive anxiety, leaving many unsettled.

This piece delves into the profound sense of loss associated with the missing summer rain. It contemplates the emotional and psychological impact of prolonged dry spells and the disruption of natural weather cycles. The author reflects on how the expected rhythms of summer have been replaced by an unnerving stillness.

The article explores the anxieties that arise when familiar environmental patterns disappear. It questions the collective mood when the usual relief of rain is absent, and the sun's intensity becomes a source of discomfort rather than pleasure. The narrative captures a sense of longing for the return of normalcy and the soothing presence of summer showers.
