Bernard, un homme du monde dans la soixantaine, retourne à Saint-Boniface pour renouer avec ses origines. Accompagné de Marjolaine – une jeune femme qui a été sa protégée –, il arpente la ville sur les traces des lieux, des êtres et des événements qui ont marqué son enfance singulière. Au fil des récits qui ponctuent leur parcours, ils croisent notamment la petite rivière Seine, le lac Winnipeg, Gabrielle Roy, Louis Riel, un shérif acadien, la reine Elizabeth II, un jésuite bien particulier, Salinger, Malraux, Dostoïevski... ainsi que des castors. Bernard se laisse progressivement aller à des confidences qui le révèlent, aux yeux de Marjolaine, sous un jour nouveau. Roman imagé aux accents poétiques, «La mesure du temps» effectue une plongée saisissante dans la psyché humaine.
