Can a book change your life? Clara is a hairdresser in a small town in Burgundy. Her daily life is a melancholic boss, a friend as handsome as a Disney prince, and a cat who won't let herself be petted. Calm reigns in her life, perhaps too much, until the day Clara meets the man who will change her life: Marcel Proust. Tender, ironic and endearing, this story of emancipation is also a wonderful tribute to the power of books.
