"Sous le regard émerveillé de leur fils, ils dansent sur "Mr. Bojangles" de Nina Simone. Leur amour est magique, vertigineux, une fête perpétuelle. Chez eux, il n'y a de place que pour le plaisir, la fantaisie et les amis. Celle qui donne le ton, qui mène le bal, c'est la mère, feu follet imprévisible et extravagant. C'est elle qui a adopté le quatrième membre de la famille, Mademoiselle Superfétatoire, un grand oiseau exotique qui déambule dans l'appartement. C'est elle qui n'a de cesse de les entraîner dans un tourbillon de poésie et de chimères. Un jour, pourtant, elle va trop loin. Et père et fils feront tout pour éviter l'inéluctable, pour que la fête continue, coûte que coûte. L'amour fou n'a jamais si bien porté son nom."-- Page 4 of cover. "Under the admiring gaze of their son, they dance on to "Mr. Bojangles" by Nina Simone. Their love is magical, vertiginous, a perpetual feast. Among them, there is only room for fun, fantasy and friends. This sets the tone ... the mother is an unpredictable and extravagant wisp. She adopted the fourth member of the family, Miss superfluous, a large exotic bird that wanders in the apartment. it was she who made up a whirlwind poetry and dreams. But one day, she goes too far. and father and son will do anything to avoid the inevitable, that the party continue all costs. Crazy love has never so aptly named."--Cataloger's translation of page 4 of cover.
