A scholarly widower, numbed by grief, is drawn back toward life by Katharine Frensham, a warm and independent woman no longer young. Their friendship ripens in England and then in Norway, among an old couple called Bedstemor and Bedstefar and a lively companion nicknamed Knutty, who urges him at least to pretend to be happy.
