Paul and Claire meet his brother, Serge and his wife Babette, for dinner one evening to talk about their children. Serge is running for Prime Minister and wants to do damage control. The other three have other ideas.
The story is told in flashbacks of the relationships and events of Paul's life. I liked Paul but I never warmed to most of the characters. I have a lot of questions for them.
This is probably a book I would never have picked up on my own had it not been for my book club. There is a lot to discuss and think about in this book. How do people make the choices they do? Very thought provoking and timely.
