Von 1869 bis 1915 entsteht, ähnlich dem großen Roman "Au bonheur des dames" von Zola, aus der Gründung eines der größten Warenhäuser der Welt: Harrod's in London, eine Familiensaga, deren Schicksal und Abenteuer eine malerische Chronik dessen darstellen, was man die kleine Geschichte nennt. Gute Dokumentation, die die fiktiven Elemente dieser soziologischen Evokation des Aufstiegs des Großhandels weltweit glaubhaft macht.
