Among the approximately twenty students who studied at the Institute of Painting, three of them maintained close relationships. A young man and two young women, Jonas, Paula, and Kate, with whom the novel begins and delves into their highly detailed worlds. But Paula is at the forefront of the scene with her past and present. Despite the many countries witnessing the events, Paris remains the constant destination from which people move to and from.
