Iris is a young woman who has recently lost her grandmother and has now inherited the family home. With a mother and two aunts who are quite possibly offended by her inheritance she moves into the house to learn about her heritage and figure out what she is going to do with the home.

My main issue was this book was just generally hard to follow. The story changed from past to present and it was had keeping all the characters straight and their relationships to one other in line. I think the reason why this book didn't feel like it flowed was it is a translation. I was unaware of this until after starting to read it, but I just couldn't keep up with the story and the characters.
