After a prologue situating his present, a doctor in the thirties, the narrating hero, Ferdinand, remembers his younger days, in a middle-class environment, around 1900. He is an only son, raised in a Parisian passage between an educating, fine and intuitive grandmother, a sacrificial mother owner of a small store of lace and objects of curiosity and a violent and rascal father, employed in an insurance company. He grew awkwardly, constantly victim of the bitter reproaches of his parents, multiplies the learnings and the sentimental and professional failures, stays in an English college before seeing his destiny rock with the meeting of a wacky inventor, Leonardo da Vinci of the fumisterie scientist, to always live tragicomic adventures ...
