Nora, like many of Edna O'Brien's female characters, is a lonely, weak, and disillusioned woman in her forties, accused of murdering her young lover, a friend of her son. As she seeks to prepare her defense while in custody, long-forgotten, tormenting, and humiliating scenes from her childhood, past relationships, and her failed marriage flood her memory.
