In 1920s Montreal, 75 parishoners die one terrible night at the hands of an arsonist. Among the survivors are Remouald, whose nightmarish, repressed childhood memories cause him constant turmoil; Seraphon, his invalid father who holds a self-destructive secret; and schoolteacher Clementine Clement, who obsesses in solitude over past tragedies, unrequited passions, and the grim suspicion that something is woefully amiss with a group of young boys in her class. Gaetan Soucy applies his trademark vivid language, bracing wit, and fearless insight to this compelling story of horror and hope.
