Presentation
The narrator is a poor little rich girl. Born and bred into the Parisian bourgeoisie, she has early on concluded that life is a theatre where she has to hold her own. To outsiders she has everything : wealth, loving parents...
The parental couple are flamboyant socialites who patronize the fashionable nightclubs of Saint-Germain-des Prés and the Italian Riviera : a picture of happiness and harmony. At home however, relations are strained. The mother's mood swings between authoritarianism and fits of melancholia, and the father submits to his wife's whims and tantrums. The neglected little girl navigates between nurses and governesses, searching for an adoptive family.
Peau de caniche is Dominique Zehrfuss's first novel. She has published several books for young readers.
