Set in the French department of a Quebec cegep, where the author herself taught for years. The main character is a teacher in his final year before retirement who becomes something of a media celebrity after publishing a few biting opinion columns. Following the months of the school year, the novel portrays this small world, crowded with characters and intrigues, with humour and gravity: a teaching profession searching for itself while facing social values that deny it, and the contemporary literary scene.
