lThe Davranche family is fairly poor, a condition which Joseph's mother passive-aggressively blames on his father. His two adult sisters sew their own clothes, and the family survives on plain, monotonous meals. Joseph's uncle Jules, whom Joseph has never met, has squandered the Davranche inheritance. However, he's emigrated to New York and written to the family twice, explaining that he's doing well and hopes to return to Le Havre one day. He plans to repay Philippe, Joseph's father, his share of the inheritance, leaving the family to place all their hope in Jules to secure their financial future.
