Paris, France

Julie, Gilda, and Carla spend a semester in Paris as Gilda's pregnancy begins to show. They have a nice apartment there, a short distance from the campus where Julie attends a UC Berkley program and from Gilda's campus, the Saint Anne's British School.

Pont-les-Puits, France

Pont-les-Puits, France, is where Armand and Lorna live together until Lorna moves to America. Lorna longs for the wonderful house she shared with Armand there, and there are a couple of times she considers returning just because of that house. The house becomes an important setting again later when Ran and Amy rent it for a family holiday gathering. By then, Armand has been living in an apartment so he can rent out the house. The cemetery collapse is one of the most important events here. There are several descriptions of that site, including the bones and decaying bodies strewn around.
