En el verano de 1992, en un valle perdido en el este de Francia, Anthony, de catorce años, y su primo deciden robar una canoa para explorar la playa nudista al otro lado del lago. Este verano marcará el primer amor de Anthony y el comienzo de los dramas de la vida. Nicolas Mathieu escribe una novela sobre un valle, una época y la adolescencia, un relato político de una juventud que busca su camino en un mundo en decadencia. A través de cuatro veranos, desde Smells Like Teen Spirit hasta la Copa del Mundo de 1998, se narran vidas aceleradas en una Francia de contrastes, entre la nostalgia y el declive, la decencia y la rabia.
