Und lässt die Mutter als Repräsentantin einer Zeit und eines Milieus auferstehen, das auch das ihre war. Das Leben ihrer Mutter: geboren um die Jahrhundertwende in der Normandie, Arbeiterin, dann Ladenbesitzerin, Ehefrau, zweifache Mutter, lebenslustig und offen, Körper und Geist werden später langsam durch Alzheimer zerstört. Das Ende war für die Tochter vorauszusehen, die Wirklichkeit des Todes scheint indessen kaum erträglich.
