The fire-dwellers

by Margaret Laurence

Stacey McAindra vit à Vancouver. Elle a 39 ans et incarne la femme au foyer moderne auprès d'un époux insociable et de leurs quatre enfants. En dépit d'une position sociale contraignante, elle s'octroie des petits plaisirs non sans culpabiliser. Pour alimenter la monotonie de son quotidien, elle convoque son passé, cherchant à ne pas répéter les erreurs de sa mère et de sa soeur.
