Marie is the prettiest girl in her hometown, dating the most popular boy in town. She is the envy of all her schoolmates and she loves it. She falls pregnant and gives birth to Diana; things change. Diana steals the hearts of all who meet her, inciting jealousy in her mother. This is Diana’s story. / Marie, joven belleza de provincias, despierta admiración, se sabe deseada, disfruta siendo el centro de atención y se deja cortejar por el galán más guapo de su entorno. Pero un embarazo imprevisto y una boda precipitada cortan en seco sus devaneos juveniles, y cuando nace su hija Diane vierte sobre ella toda su frialdad, envidia y celos. Diane crecerá marcada por la carencia de afecto maternal e intentando comprender los motivos de la cruel actitud de su madre hacia ella. Años después, la fascinación por el verso de Alfred de Musset que da origen al título del libro la impulsará a estudiar cardiología en la universidad, donde se topará con una profesora llamada Olivia. Con ella, en la que creerá encontrar la anhelada figura materna, establecerá una ambigua y compleja relación, pero Olivia tiene a su vez una hija, y la historia dará un vuelco inesperado.
