After reading Michel Tremblay’s Thérèse et Pierrette à l’école des Saints-Anges, I was happy to find the school building almost exactly as it was described in the novel, which is set in 1942. The book includes a scene where one of the little girls is dressed as an angel and suspended from the lip above the doorway for hours during a religious ceremony.
