From the blood-soaked streets of 1870s Paris to the student riots of the 1960s--a magnificent epic novel of revolution, obsession, and buried secrets I felt always that the crumbling paper must hold something that was more like speaking flesh and blood . . . that somewhere amid these shreds . . . I would learn something of this family lost to silence; something about a house that was quickly abandoned and a family divided, and then all gates shut on the past.
