C’est l’histoire d’une petite fille trop sensible nommée Mariana, mais aussi un touchant hommage à l’univers qui l’a définie : le quartier où elle a vécu, les familles immigrantes qu’elle a côtoyées, les enseignants qui l’ont inspirée, et aussi les lieux enchanteurs (pour une enfant) qu’elle a fréquentés, tels le Club argentin, le cinéma Langelier et le marché aux puces Cinq étoiles. Fille d’immigrante, Mariana Mazza brosse un portrait de son enfance dans le Montréal-Nord des années 1990 à la fois sombre et lumineux, chaotique et chaleureux.

Ею восхищались от Николая II до Ленина, а ее веселые ироничные рассказы и фельетоны с остроумными наблюдениями над жизнью и нотками грусти очень высоко ценили. Пережив три революции, две мировые войны, оказавшись в 1920-е годы в эмиграции, она сохранила в "короткой прозе" непосредственность, легкость и умение посмеяться над обычными бытовыми ситуациями, а в свои мемуары привнесла философский характер. В русском Париже Тэффи была одним из любимых писателей.
