THE PORCELAIN INKWELLS by Jean-Paul MALAVAL - Éditions De Borée / Terre de Poche (53 rue Fernand-Forest Romagnat) - 2007 - 416 pages – Softcover. In the autumn of 1935, Augusta, freshly promoted from the normal school, discovers her very first class in a village in a peaceful valley. She is welcomed there by Henri Jacquet, an aging teacher who shares the general opinion that children are nothing but backward peasants incapable of rising above their condition. She herself is the daughter of workers, and she believes that school must repair the injustices of society. Alone against all, Augusta wants to prove them wrong and enable all her students to obtain the 'certif'. This pretty little girl who doesn't let herself be discouraged attracts the men of the village, under the angry gaze of the 'right-thinking'. The abbot and the mayor, who does not hide his fascist opinions, oppose her. Obstacles multiply in front of the young woman to whom no failure will be forgiven...
