The youngster, who is hard of hearing and has a discourse obstacle which prompts more insights on dialect and correspondence picks the numbers for a lottery ticket that transforms the storyteller into one of the most extravagant individuals in Iceland.

The lady and the kid set off around the Ring Road on an out-of-season voyage of revelation and reparation.

Then, butterflies, frequently noticeable just to the storyteller, show up and vanish in unnatural seasons and places.

A captivating novel about a lady who staggers into a sudden difference in fortune and sets out on an odd excursion to get away from the inquiries that have since quite a while ago frequented her—and discovers replies in the unlikeliest places.
