The story unfolds in a small Northern town, Pont-sur-Deule, and revolves around the lives of the Wallers family, particularly focusing on Marie Wallers against the backdrop of familial and social expectations, love, and betrayal amidst provincial gossip. The opening of the novel introduces a picturesque and quaint setting, detailing the streets of Pont-sur-Deule, where the focal character, Monsieur Guillaume Wallers, emerges as an esteemed archeologist known for his punctual routines observed by his neighbors. The narrative subtly shifts to the dynamics within the Wallers family, hinting at complexities in relationships, notably concerning Marie, who is touched by unresolved familial and romantic tensions, including her fraught marriage with André Laubespin. The interactions among the characters reveal societal norms and the impact of whispered secrets, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of individuality, conformity, and the yearning for sweetness in life.
