Nous traverserons des orages

In this family saga, Anne-Laure Bondoux delivers a powerful "cross-over" novel that spans a century of French history. Set at a hamlet farm called Les Chaumes, the story unfolds through the eyes of four generations, beginning on the eve of a world war and concluding a hundred years later.

It is a tale of secrets, ghosts, and the relentless passage of time. As seasons change and governments rise and fall, the men of this family love, dream, and return from wars broken and silent. Through this intimate lens, Bondoux captures the evolution of a country and the invisible threads that bind ancestors to their descendants.
