The Paper House presents a delightful and amusing picture of daily life in the author’s household. She lives with her husband Jacques, Delfau the painter and her four children, a spanish maid and her infant son, a dog, a cat, a pigeon recovering from a broken wing, a blackbird that can out-scream the tv, and a four and a half year old goldfish, won by Vincent, one of her sons, in a lottery.
