Set in 1897 France, the narrative explores a nation grappling with the aftermath of the Franco-Prussian war and the looming uncertainties of the 20th century. Amidst a backdrop of paranoia, the military suspects treachery, while the government faces threats from both Germans and anarchists. Political factions—socialists, monarchists, Republicans, and conservatives—engage in fierce debates over the country's future, intensified by the rise of rival newspapers that amplify societal tensions.

"The lives of three women intersect in this delicate and surprising novel about memory and loss, prjudice and unrequited love - not to mention literature and cooking as a cure for heartbreak. Their stories criss-cross between Paris in the 1890's at the hhieght of the Dreyfus affair, France in 1942, and present-day Canada. Marie Prevost is a contemporary Canadian who sets off for Paris to research Proust and escape a failed romance - finding instead Mme Proust's 'unpublished diary' in the archives. Sarah Bensimon is a young Parisian Jew whose parents spirit her out of occupied France, and who ends up in Toronto. MArrying into an orthodox family, she takes refuge in her kitchen, recreating a kosher version of classic French cuisine. The third woman is Madame Jeanne Proust herself, fragments of whose 'diaries' are recreated with impeccably researched detail - as she worries about Marcel, his late-night habits, his diet and his unsuitable friends. All these strands are brought poignantly together - the new world and the old, the Seine and the St Lawrence, mothers and sons, outsiders and insiders - in this intelligent and beautifully judged debut novel."
