内容简介：
Owen was adopted as a child. Now he is a doctor, living alone, his wife having left him and taken their children to live in Australia. When Owen has a breakdown, friends take him to a cottage in Wales to recuperate, and there he begins to remember his past and to accept his Welsh heritage. Reading a book by an author who in looks could be his double, Owen begins to delve into his past. He learns about the troubled lives of his real parents, Rhodri and Malen, and slowly he begins to heal himself, with the help of a young woman, Gwen, of whom he is becoming increasingly fond.
