Set in 18th century Quebec City, this novel unfolds as a love story amidst the backdrop of colonial life and cultural interactions between English settlers, Québécois, and Native peoples. Written in letter format, it captures the period between the Plains of Abraham and the American War of Independence, exploring themes of gender roles, cultural clashes, and societal norms. Through the perspectives of characters like Colonel William Fermor and Arabella Fermor, it serves as both a narrative and a travelogue, detailing the landscape, customs, and social dynamics of early Canadian life.
