Description
How to live when one receives a gift in life that one does not want? An old uninhabited villa with a neglected garden. And one big life failure. Thirty-five-year-old Jaroslav returns to the house of his childhood at a turning point in his life. After a failed church 'career', he intends to start over, for the first time on his own. Perhaps with a bit of hope, but primarily with a feeling of burnout and alienation towards everything and everyone. His only refuge becomes the neglected garden and the work within it. In solitude among the trees, bushes, and flowers, he tries to give his life some meaning. Gradually, he gets to know the neighbors, and thanks to that, he begins to unravel his fateful alienation. The insight into himself is more terrifying than he ever dared to admit. Will there be at least someone who understands him and extends a hand? Where does the boundary lie between rejection and acceptance of the unacceptable? Is there a way out of this dark night? From the author of the bestsellers Dědina, Chirurg, and Vrány.
