After infertility treatment and two miscarriages, a couple begins to embrace a life together on their own when the wife is diagnosed with tongue cancer...
She had found purpose and joy in reading aloud to children at the library, but the illness takes away both her voice and the time she shared with the young.
As a passage from 'Night on the Galactic Railroad'— the story that had long sustained her heart —echoes in her mind, a chance encounter brings her together with two sisters who have been neglected by their parents.
A quiet, intimate story of recovery, about a woman who has lost her words slowly finding her way back to them.
