Plot Summary

For this new adventure, the Maudru family will indeed be reunited once again. Aimé, the father, of course—who, as always, will once more try to voice his outrage against a society that's too "modern" for him and that he feels oppressed by. His wife Louise will be there, thankfully, to try and calm him down and bring him back to a version of reality that's a bit offbeat as well, but pragmatic and reassuring: her own. Their nephew Désiré will still be as delightfully unhinged, brilliantly simple-minded, and philosophical as ever: sunshine in August, meat pie with crust!
