About this audiobook
The frozen landscape of Starkfield mirrors the suspended lives of its inhabitants, trapping a farmer between a sickly wife and her radiant cousin. A desperate attempt to escape their grim reality leads to a sledding accident that changes everything, yet ends nothing. Instead of freedom, the trio is bound together in a lifelong tableau of bitterness and crippled bodies. It is a devastating study of irony, where survival is the ultimate punishment.
