La Place looks at a daughter's relationship with her father. In a
fragmented and retrospective way the narrator describes her
feelings of separation and betrayal that arise when education and
marriage place her in a social class with different values,
language, tastes and behaviour. She explores the ways in which
individual experience is related to class and group attitudes and
at the same time tells us a great deal about French society in
general since the turn of the century. It is a concentrated text,
cut through with irony and may be read in different ways. La Place
will be an accessible and exciting addition to French studies
courses.
