"French Canadian family life in pioneer Manitoba. Tells of parish priest's life."
"The story of La petite poule d'eau is as pure as the lives of the people in it -- and as unforgettable. Set in the remote wilderness of northern Manitoba, this sunny, tender idyll of daily frontier life captures, as few novels ever have, the spirit and the surroundings of the pioneers -- not the adventurers and trailblazers who make the headlines, but rather the humble folk who follow after and remain, living out their lives in obscurity to keep the trails open."
""Cette nouvelle édition présente le texte définitif de La petite poule d'eau, revu et corrigé, suivi d'une chronologie et d'une brève notice."--P.4 of cover."
""The story of Where Nests the Water Hen is as pure as the lives of the people in it -- and as unforgettable. Set in the remote wilderness of northern Manitoba, this sunny, tender idyll of daily frontier life captures, as few novels ever have, the spirit and the surroundings of the pioneers -- not the adventurers and trailblazers who make the headlines, but rather the humble folk who follow after and remain, living out their lives in obscurity to keep the trails open ... Gabrielle Roy's second novel is a sensitive and sympathetic tale that captures both the innocence and the vitality of a sparsely populated frontier."--Page 4 of cover."

Des difficultés de toutes sortes n'arrêteront pas Luzina dans son désir de fournir l'instruction à ses enfants."
