Early draft
In post-war Derry, a widowed bookbinder takes a temporary job helping to sort the contents of a house emptied after a sudden death. What begins as a practical task becomes a slow reckoning with the lives hidden in ordinary objects, and with the compromises she has made to keep her own life in order.
