The period in the life of a self-confident middle-aged Parisian woman is full of dramatic events: a sudden, bright passion for a friend of her youth, a break with her husband, a painful recognition of the hidden past of her parents - and all this against the backdrop of nostalgic memories of the hippie movement, exquisite musical themes and abstract canvases The subtlest movements of the female soul and the eros of the flesh - that’s what Dominique Dien’s novel is all about.
