Trond tiene 67 años y se ha retirado a una zona remota del este de Noruega buscando soledad. Sin embargo, el encuentro con un vecino despierta recuerdos enterrados de un verano trascendental hace más de cincuenta años, cuando las vacaciones con su padre cerca de la frontera sueca cambiaron su vida para siempre. Esta aclamada novela de Per Petterson explora los secretos familiares, la pérdida de la inocencia y el impacto duradero de las decisiones del pasado. Con una prosa clara y evocadora, la obra captura la belleza del paisaje noruego y la complejidad de las relaciones entre padres e hijos, habiendo sido galardonada con prestigiosos premios internacionales y adaptada al cine.
