Winner of the Prix Goncourt award in 1990.

One family's grandchildren recount the eccentricities and foibles of their grandparents, whose lives have remained in the timewarp of World War I "fields of glory". Awarded the prestigious Goncourt Prize, this novel vaulted author Jean Rouaud from anonymity to acclaim as the freshest literary voice in France in decades.
