En el barrio de inmigrantes irlandeses de Brooklyn en los años veinte, una niña llamada Marie observa a sus vecinos desde la escalera de su casa. A través de escenas íntimas y sutiles, la novela narra la vida de Marie, desde su adolescencia y primer amor hasta los desengaños, la pérdida de seres queridos, la maternidad y la madurez. La prosa de Alice McDermott revela cómo la vida se manifiesta en momentos decisivos, explorando emociones como la alegría, el dolor, el miedo, la vulnerabilidad, el amor y la pasión con delicadeza y profundidad.
