Leaving is easy and arriving is hard, but is it possible to come home? Called back by former classmates to a reunion, the novel's middle-aged heroine, a writer who changed countries thirty years ago but never managed to change languages, sets off for the place she came from. Her love of travel and adventure has faded, and no one waits for her there: even the surviving members of her family have left the city. The novel follows her long road between two worlds, asking where home is and what became of those who scattered across the world and those who stayed, and turns up unexpected discoveries from the past.
