Summary
"Following her mother's sudden death, Casandra inherits the apartment where she spent her childhood. Although she doesn't see her mother's body, she has nightmares about it for days, almost as long as it takes her to clean the apartment, go… through its contents, and throw out the family photos from which her mother cut out her own face. To have some time alone, Casandra and her boyfriend, Fernando, move into the apartment, despite the secrets and resentments that lurk there. As they soon discover, they must also contend with the peculiarities and demands of their elderly neighbors in the building. Cassandra especially, like her mother before her, is on the receiving end of their orders and critiques, thinly disguised as recommendations. Alienated by her isolation and haunted by the ghosts of the past, Casandra feels her world shrink as she and Fernando grow apart. Is her life taking the same course as her mother's?" -- Provided by publisher
