This story is a woman's confession about a life that could have been different, but became what it is.
The main character, Frankie Howe, is a woman with a difficult fate. Since childhood, the heroine has gone through a series of trials: from orphanhood to an early unsuccessful marriage. From a young age, closely observing everything, Frankie has always been on the periphery of life. Now, at a respectable age, Frankie becomes an interesting storyteller. A caretaker, Damian, arrives at her London apartment, in communication with whom Frankie's memories awaken, and the past comes to life in her stories, and when Damian listens to her story, an entire era of the turn of the century appears before the reader.
Traveling from post-war Ireland to 1960s New York - a city full of art, incredible characters and upheavals - Frankie shares a world in which friendship and chance encounters are intertwined. Through the prism of stories from Frankie's past, life continues in other forms and with other people.
