A young woman lives with her child and her husband, who is often away, beside a river where she takes daily walks or which she watches from the window of her old house surrounded by fruit trees. The days pass without incident: everyone sees a young woman who goes for walks, makes jam and takes down her Christmas tree only in February, and this woman "must be happy", since she has everything for it. But the calm hides a movement of great violence, a surrender she lives in secret. A novel about what happens when nothing happens, and about a love that says yes to forgiveness and to the present moment.
