Description
In 1927, Marcel Péricourt's funeral marks the beginning of a chain of events that will change the life of his daughter Madeleine forever. Tragedy strikes when her seven-year-old son Paul falls from a second-floor window, leaving him with life-changing injuries. As Madeleine struggles to rebuild her life, she sets out on a journey of retribution and resourcefulness. With the help of an unlikely group of allies - including an ex-Communist fixer, a Polish nurse, and an opera singer - Madeleine navigates the treacherous landscape of post-war Paris. As she fights to reclaim her place in society, she must confront the darker side of human nature and the consequences of her own actions. A gripping tale of survival and redemption, All Human Wisdom is a portrait of Europe on the edge of disaster, set against the vibrant backdrop of 1920s Paris.
