Description
Sigrid's life is defined by her resistance to growing up. She never graduated high school and instead spends her days roaming the streets with her best friend Greta, the only person who truly understands her. Her older sister Margit is baffled by Sigrid's refusal to conform to societal expectations, but beneath Sigrid's detachment lies a deeper turmoil and sensitivity. Haunted by the pains of her past, including the violent arguments between their parents and the loss of Greta's friendship due to the opioid epidemic, Sigrid has built walls around herself. As Margit sets out to understand Sigrid and the secrets she has hidden, both sisters discover that reigniting their shared childhood imagination is the key to moving forward. This novel is a powerful exploration of the bond between two sisters and the transformative power of imagination.
