A non-stop talking seven-year-old French girl is discovering her world, occupied France in 1944. By most adults standards, she is too curious for her own good and sometimes the good of the adults that care for her. She will tell you which words that can be said aloud and which not. She has her own understandings of what is happening both in Paris where she was born and in the Village where she ended up being a refugee. When she is out of words, she makes them up.
This is presented in the form of vignettes (56) as if one browses an old photo album. A child has a different sense of chronology, a child follows feelings and there are lots of feelings. Love, admiration, anger, fears, friendship, joy, awe. Camille absorbs all, the good, the ugly, the dos and don't, wide-eyed.
