Les plus belles histoires d'amour ne meurent jamais. Elles continuent de vivre dans nos souvenirs et les coïncidences cruelles que notre esprit invente. Mais quand, pour Nathy, ces coïncidences deviennent trop nombreuses, doit-elle croire qu'il n'y a pas de hasard, seulement des rendez-vous ? Qui s'évertue à lui faire revivre cette parenthèse passionnelle qui a failli balayer sa vie ? Quand passé et présent se répètent au point de défier toute explication rationnelle, Nathy doit-elle admettre qu'on peut remonter le temps.

L'écriture de l'histoire de la philosophie occidentale n'est pas neutre : une Grèce prétendument fondatrice à l'exclusion des pensées qui la précèdent dans le temps, une domination idéaliste, notamment platonicienne, une tradition qui poursuit ce parti-pris avec le spiritualisme chrétien et l'idéal allemand - l'historiographie dominante est nettement platonicienne. Or, on peut proposer une contre-histoire de la philosophie qui se soucie d'un autre lignage : matérialiste, hédoniste, nominaliste, athée, sensualiste, empirique, etc. Et s'y inscrire avec le souci d'une pensée systématique.
