Angela Palm grew up on the banks of a river that flooded every year. From her window, Palm watched people sandbagged their houses, loved the neighbour boy from afar and longed for more. As an adult, Palm finds herself drawn back, like the river, to her origins. But this means more than remembering the place that shaped her or trying to understand her family. It means visiting the prison where the boy she loved is serving a life sentence for a brutal murder. It means trying to chart, through interconnected essays, the course of her life.
