Her mother's concerns about the politics of the situation do not interest her - until they lead to the break-up of the family. Then Violette's own emotions are thrown into turmoil: bitterness at her mother's desertion, yet a desperate need for her understanding. And she finds attitudes towards the events around her changing as she becomes involved with Alan, one of her mother's new friends.
