One of Canada’s emerging and promising women writers, Caroline Adderson, has written a complex portrait of a newly married couple fatefully wounded in a car accident. Ross, madly in love with his bride, is emotionally defeated by guilt when Iliana is paralysed from the waist down. Iliana seems able to deal with being wheelchair bound but her grief stems from Ross turning away from her, leaving her celibate and unhappy. Adderson shows us how two people, deeply in love, can misunderstand one another so profoundly, yet finally turn towards each other for redemption.
