- How to go on living afterwards? It is the end of winter. A young violinist is murdered in her apartment by a stranger. Her mother is in shock. Devastated by the violent death of her daughter, she decides to leave Montréal and take refuge, alone, in Kamouraska, at the country house built by her maternal ancestors and inherited from her mother. She tries to rebuild an interior life by re-establishing contact with Nature, with the house, and with the objects that remind her of her childhood and that of her daughter. But the mother's grief is profound: she doesn't want to go on living. In extremis, she is discovered and saved in the forest by a man while she was letting herself freeze to death. They recognize each other: they knew each other as teenagers. They can't help letting the amorous feelings of those times resurface. The presence of this man and the benevolent spirits of her grandmother, mother and daughter, all dead yet still present for her, help her regain her equilibrium and find the desire to live again.
- La famille Cormoran possède une terre au bord du fleuve, dans la région du Bas Saint-Laurent. Elle habite une imposante maison qui domine les environs. En 1936, la société traverse une crise politique, économique et culturelle. Les idéologies s'affrontent et la société canadienne-française s'en ressent. Dans le microcosme de Baie-d'Esprit, un propriétaire foncier, un commerçant politicien, un industriel en devenir et un imprimeur-éditeur participent aux bouleversements de l'époque. Sans trop le savoir, ils sont de gauche ou de droite, républicains ou monarchistes, camelots du roi ou communards. Ils s'aiment, se détestent, s'allient, se combattent selon les situations quotidiennes qu'ils sont appelés à vivre, et les pressions que la société exerce sur eux.

There she meets up with her brother, Jean-Paul. Her many lovers range from one-night stands like Bernard to Yves and Robert, who are briefly in her life. Passionate, anticonformist Ruth has to contend with her brother's ferocious jealousy - he goes as far as attacking Robert, his best friend. Robert, completely baffled by Ruth's cynical recklessness, finally pushes her away. Ruth continues her struggle to find absolute love. She clings passionately, clumsily and shamelessly to those she loves and those she doesn't, in frenzied desperation. Continually disappointed and shut out by the "real world," she chooses a way out that is typically extreme...
