Set in the isolated fjord country of Iceland, the novel is narrated by a girl unlike those around her, who has lost her twin. She makes a discipline of her sadness, yet it does not rule out some kind of redemption, nor her lasting astonishment at beauty, in a book that tries to cleanse the hard and wonderful business of being alive.
