Novela maestra de formación ganadora del premio IMPAC Dublin 2007. Narrada en primera persona por Trond Sender, un hombre de sesenta y siete años que vive aislado en una casa de un bosque situado en la frontera entre Noruega y Suecia. El protagonista rememora su vida en el verano de 1948, cuando tenía quince años y descubrió la verdad sobre las relaciones adúlteras entre su padre y la madre de su mejor amigo, y sobre el pasado político de su padre, antiguo miembro de la resistencia contra los nazis. Enfrentado al descubrimiento del erotismo, de la muerte y de la falsa armonía familiar, Trond se convierte, en un verano, en un hombre adulto.
