On the surface Hanna is self-assured, energetic and successful, and she does not even realise she is going through something like post-traumatic stress. The full-scale invasion, worry for the man she loves at the front, life as a refugee, caring for the children, conflicts with her mother, and memories of her father's death and of 2014 all drain her. She keeps rewinding the past in her head, looking for the causes of her state and of her family's problems. A novel about the lack of openness in relationships, family or romantic, and about how anger and fear settle in people and strike those closest to them, even far from the front line.
