A young woman is left by her husband without warning, then she is asked by her sick best friend to look after her four-year-old son. In the twilight of an Icelandic November, the pair set off on a tour of the island, and an unlikely friendship develops. A story shot-through with laughter and a distinctive, life-affirming charm, this book is a novel that will stay with the reader long after the smiles it provokes have faded from their lips.
