"It is just me, my blank page and the cursor - waiting for the letters to come. Anything goes. Fuck."Anna Bennik always wanted to be a writer. Now she is sitting in this rental, the landscape of lush green fields with the promise of a great harvest as well as beautiful forests flying by. Her manuscript, her baby, the little miracle, is right with her on the road to the big city. The road to the publisher. Retirement - and of course Ben in her armchair, who always knew what she was thinking - has left no more excuses. The journey towards her story led her on an unexpected path of creation and destruction. Instead of simply filling the empty pages, she opens up old wounds and secrets, she thought she had left long behind. Amidst all this, her characters, Emma and Adam, have to find each other over and over again.
