An East German writer, awaiting a call from the hospital where her
brother is undergoing brain surgery, instead receives news of a
massive nuclear accident at Chernobyl, one thousand miles away. In
the space of a single day, in a potent, lyrical stream of thought,
the narrator confronts both mortality and life and above all, the
import of each moment lived-open, as Wolf reveals, to infinite
analysis.
