This book is a novella published in 2023 by the Nobel Prize winner Yong Fosser. In the old house by the fjord, an old woman named Signe lies on a bench, and she sees herself as a young woman more than 20 years ago: she stands by the window, looking at the water, waiting for her husband Asle to return. It was late November, and on that terrible day, he rowed out to sea in a small boat and never came back. Her memories kept coming back to her, recalling the days when the two of them lived together, and going back further: Signe remembered the previous generations of her family, the ties of a family, their struggle with the ruthless nature, which can be traced back five generations, all the way to Asle's great-great-grandmother Alice - she lit a fire on the river bank at night.
