Der Meister des Monumental-Epos entdeckt Paris neu Fünf Familien, deren Schicksale sich mit der großen Historie dieser Stadt über Jahrhunderte verweben: Die adligen Le Cygnes sind mit den armen Le Sourds seit der Niederschlagung der Pariser Kommune in einer Rachegeschichte unheilvoll verbunden. Die Brüder Gascon, die in den Hinterhöfen von Montmartre zu Hause sind, erleben bei der Errichtung des Eiffelturms Glanz und Elend - und, was den älteren der beiden Gascons betrifft, die große Liebe. Und schließlich sind da die Blanchards, die im Napoleonischen Zeitalter im Kunsthandel ihr Glück machten, ebenso wie Kunsthändlerfamilie Jacob, die aber 1940 im Zuge der deutschen Besatzung alles zu verlieren drohen.
