Sinossi
Una scrittrice si trasferisce a Londra in seguito alla fine del suo matrimonio e dopo lunghe ricerche decide di acquistare un appartamento totalmente da ristrutturare. Mentre la protagonista combatte con la polvere della demolizione e con i nuovi vicini che paiono odiarla a prima vista, i due figli devono trattenersi a casa del padre, almeno per il tempo dei lavori. È un periodo di grandi transizioni e cambiamenti per tutti. E mentre la vita scorre, la scrittrice incontra numerose persone e ne ascolta le storie. Agenti immobiliari, vecchi fidanzati, parrucchieri, muratori stranieri: tutti custodiscono episodi di vita inaspettati e verità da svelare e condividere.
