It begins in the late 1960s in Switzerland, as the boys ideas about life are being shaped by two rival influences.These are his so-called auntsimperious, strong-willed, ambitiousboth exiles, at the mercy of outside political events; both determined to make the boy into their own heir, an inheritor of their values. In self-contained episodes, each set in an alpine grand hotel, we see one aunt and then the other educate their protege.Serghiana, the red princess, is the daughter of a Soviet general, a producer of films and worshipper of art, a true believer. Ady, a former actress and singer, is a dilettante and cynic, Viennese, married to a great conductor: in her eyes, all is surface, truth a mere illusion.Memory and nostalgiathe aunts gifts to the boy, gifts of obligationare the purest expression of love allowed them. Gradually he comes to understand the shadows in their past.
