A Norwegian novel about one woman's struggle to reconcile the desire to be tolerant and altruistic with the imperative need for creative and personal space. Alma, a divorced textile artist lives alone in an old villa, and rents out an apartment in her house. She is overjoyed at the chance to design a tapestry for an exhibition to celebrate the centenary of women's suffrage in Norway, but finds it a daunting task. Meanwhile, a Polish family moves into her apartment, and their activities become a challenge to her unconscious assumptions and her self-image as a good feminist and an open-minded liberal.
