Set in rural Quebec, the story follows Maria after the sudden death of the man she loves. She must choose between two suitors—one offering an exciting life in the city, the other representing the familiar countryside. Written by a French journalist who lived on a Quebec farm gathering stories, this novel became a beloved classic before its author tragically died in a train accident, never knowing of his book's success.
