«Un cercle de famille» is Michèle Gazier's novel, published by Seuil in 1996 in paperback (214 pages, in French).
Céline is expecting a child, and the name Clément evokes the family legend of a gambling, womanising ancestor. Céline investigates that past with her mother, Florence, and her grandfather, Julien, to ward off the curse from her son. Three generations and three languages (French, Spanish, Catalan) intersect in a story touching on the Spanish Civil War and the Resistance.
It belongs to Seuil's Fiction & Cie collection, and its cover bears the subtitle 'roman'.
For readers of French fiction seeking family-centred novels with a historical backdrop and memories of the Spanish Civil War and the Resistance.
