Can one live without betraying, oneself or those who share one's life? In these stories betrayal is the key to the most secret parts of the characters. A woman refuses to call her brother to their dying mother's bedside; a teenage girl drops a friend to fit in better in her adopted country; a mother conceives a child with a man without telling him; a great artist turns out to be a human being of astonishing banality. Each time the narrator realizes that life has taken an unexpected turn, and that moment lights up the whole road travelled.
