About This Book

Vuoristoinen laakso ja satamakylä muodostavat taustan kertomukselle, jossa nuori ajotyttö ja matkustaja kohtaavat levottomuuden ja menneisyyden varjoja. Kertomus liikkuu kylän kaduilla, kirkon ympäristössä ja laiturilla, paljastaen erään naisen pelastautumista onnettomuudesta ja ajotytön halun päästä pois ahdistavasta ympäristöstä. Hääsaattueen ja paikallisten ihmisten seurauksena paljastuvat yhteisön tavat, säätyerot ja ivailu, samoin kuin yksilöiden salatut toiveet ja niukat varat. Tarina käsittelee kaipuuta, kohtalon merkitystä ja maiseman vaikutusta ihmisten muistoihin ja valintoihin.
