Book is in French Montreal, 1975. In one year, the Maltais family saw the sun peek through the clouds that dotted their daily lives... and they would not go back. Even for all the gold in the world. Martine is delighted since she left the nest. The only downside is that her mother-in-law never misses an opportunity to remind her of her aversion to cohabitation. While Marc gradually takes responsibility, Julie, now in CEGEP, has a schedule as full as that of the Prime Minister. True to their reputation, FX and Florence make a point of adding spice wherever they go, unlike Josée, who has finally stopped invading the living space of those close to her. Consequence: their mother no longer needs to hide in church! While Diane's career takes off, Charles, less fortunate, dreams of taking refuge in the chalet in order to escape popular discontent and the climate of uncertainty surrounding the future of the Olympic Games, the construction of which is progressing at a snail's pace. Under the protective roof of their beloved home, will the Maltais be spared from this limited time which imposes an insistent rhythm on the city, leaving behind it the urgency of a miracle?
