Ecologist Paul Bannerman, 35, has a stable job, a successful wife, and a young son. He believes he has life under control until he is diagnosed with cancer. As a result of treatment, he becomes "radioactive," posing a danger to those around him. To protect his wife and child, Paul voluntarily quarantines himself in his childhood home, cared for by his parents, Adrian and Lyndsay. This situation forces Paul to revert from husband and father back to son, with far-reaching consequences for everyone involved. He reflects on his marriage and his job at a major conservation organization, which conflicts with his wife's views. Meanwhile, the seemingly perfect marriage of Adrian and Lyndsay faces a crisis as repressed emotions resurface, leading to an unexpected turn in their relationship. Gordimer once again demonstrates her brilliance as an analyst of our fears and hopes, offering an unflinching insight into the depths of the human soul.
