Whatever the style of novels I like that they are rooted in a specific social fabric, and here I am served, Ariege and Toulouse! Places that I know well. This family of women in which men are only brief passages, is wonderful for its freshness; good humor despite the difficulties. The feelings are very strong, and dramas shake without any reverse ... there is a real depression. The novel begins at the time of birth of the first boy and is well led by flashbacks.
