Nearby, a woman, preoccupied with sadness and infatuated with her boss, catalogues antiquities at the Museum of Civilization. Every night, the two women meet at the hotel bar and talk - about childhood and parents and landscapes, about time and art, about Descartes and Francis Bacon and writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen \u003ci\u003eYesterday, at the Hotel Clarendon\u003c\/i\u003e appeared in French (as \u003ci\u003eHier\u003c\/i\u003e), the media called it the pinnacle of Brossard's remarkable forty-year literary career.
