At the start of the novella‚ in the “story

Etre et Avoir. Etre et Avoir tells the story of six months in the life of a small primary school in the Auvergne‚ a predominantly rural part of France. It is a documentary film‚ primarily operating through a fly-on-the-wall mode‚ that is to say without any discernable interference from the film maker.

At the time that these sonnets were written‚ females had very little power
