About This Book

The story follows a young girl living with her pretty mother on the Riviera, who notices the glamour and melancholy of Monte Carlo while yearning to know a father who is absent. Through encounters with lodgers, hotel staff, and an ailing man whose story the mother types, the child moves between bright terraces and humble rooms, observing class contrasts, adult worries about money, and tender domestic intimacy. Episodes show her curiosity, friendships with other children and servants, and gradual steps toward understanding loss, family bonds, and the practical hardships behind seaside gaiety.
