Survive! Survive! transports readers to September 1935, to glorious, tragic times in the colourful company of Ti-Lou and "the Duchess" Édouard, whose sparkling exchanges hide indissoluble pain; to sombre, twilight times with Victoire and Télesphore at the bottom of the ruelle des Fortifications, and between Josaphat and Laura Cadieux, his ill-fated daughter who wants at all costs to find her mother, Imelda Beausoleil. "How to survive?" they all ask, inextricably caught in life's cycle of lost illusions and forgotten dreams. Even as this chronicle of resilience dwells in the difficulties and disenchantments of ordinary life, it reveals existences that accommodate a happiness that passes - always too fast and almost too late.
