The narrative follows an unnamed female protagonist who returns to her mountain home after years away, seeking solitude after experiencing profound losses due to war. The themes of loneliness, healing, and the beauty of nature permeate her reflections as she grapples with her painful memories while attempting to rejuvenate her spirit in the peaceful mountain setting. The opening of the book presents the protagonist's return to her mountain retreat, where she expresses a deep sense of weariness and solitude. She lies on the grass, contemplating the beauty surrounding her—the brilliant colors of the delphiniums, the expansive sky, and the gentle quietness of nature—while grappling with feelings of loss and emptiness. The narrative reveals her thoughts about her previous life filled with love and companionship, now stripped away. As days pass, she observes the simple yet profound beauty of her surroundings, reflecting on her painful memories and the arduous path to healing, while also experiencing moments of hope and the desire to reconnect with joy.
