'This is the story of a Parisian family who live in the heart of Paris. It spans three generations. The author delves into the universal and often difficult mother/daughter relationship. Georgette is not an easy mother to deal with. Although they receive a similar upbringing, how differently do the three sisters develop? What is the result of their uneasy relationship? What is Georgette's legacy to her daughters? We meet Claudette, Justine, Nicole and later Lara and follow their paths into adulthood, from the driven to the drifter. ' (Publisher's blurb)
