What story !!

Here is a novel that will leave nobody indifferent!
Already due to its theme, homosexuality, and that,
at a time, 60 or it was even more taboo than today !!
I'm still quite upset.
Billie, pregnant by a married man is having to marry Ted who promises to take good care of her and the children. BUT This is not counting qu''il becomes violent when he drinks.
She lost the baby and in the following miscarriages.
She adopted two children with Ted. And lives his life female model at home.

The big change will occur with the new neighbors moving unexpectedly. The children agree on perfectly!
And Billie is happy to no longer be alone. Having finally found a girlfriend ....

Here to situate the story.
We spend chapter after chapter of this time with Billie 80 years which established a daily grind to make sure not to stay alone for days dead in her home before qu''on not find it, and Billie passionate in the prime of life.

A link history qu''on said unhealthy in a time not so long.
In beauty, so simple and realistic, to upset you at least for the rest of the day !!
