A woman's life is fissured by betrayal and the pressures of duty. What had once seemed a pastoral family idyll has become a trap, and she struggles between being the wife and mother she is bound to be and wanting to do and be so much more. The woman in question is Sylvia Plath in the final year of her life, re-imagined in fictive form, which lends a voice to women everywhere who stand with one foot in domesticity and the other in artistic creation.
In English, translated from the Swedish.
