Neither planned it, but when she becomes pregnant the couple marry, and they throw themselves into building the complete marriage their parents never achieved. Turning into husband, wife and parents costs each of them a part of who they were. Through the eyes of husband, wife and son in turn, the story moves through money worries, the hunt for work and disappointment with the older generation, with two cats at its heart whose lives and deaths mark the course of the family.
