Peter is a successfull Dublin lawyer in his thirties. But in the wake of his father's death, he's medicating himself to sleep and struggling to manage his relationships with two very different women- his first love Sylvia, and Naomi, a college student for whom life is on long joke.
Ivan is his twenty-two-year-old brother. A competitive chess player, he has always seen himself as socially awkward -a loner, the antithesis of his glib elder sibling. But when Ivan meets Margaret, an older woman emerging from her own turbulent past, their lives become rapidly and intensely intertwined.
For two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a new interlude -a period of desire, despair and possibility- a chance to find out how much one life might hold inside itself without breaking.
