Fred Pellerin, La descente aux affaires
During the prosperous years of Saint-Élie-de-Caxton, Toussaint Brodeur ran his general store and turned everything into profit. Through wear and tear, hard work and astonishing calculations, he amassed a handsome fortune on which he built his pride. So, when the day came for him to face Eternity, he realized that he hadn’t spent much time in his safe. Toussaint was rich, but he couldn’t afford to buy back even a single second of his life. It was too late.
We’re all equal when it comes to time. It’s how we use it that sets us apart.
Fred’s stories once again bring us face to face with the characters of the legendary Caxton, and launch us back into laughter, poetry and great reflection.
