Riassunto

This is the story of a young couple, Theo and Kim, living in 1950, whose five-year marriage is in trouble. When the novel opens, Theo is in the bank with a lawyer. He has come to collect the contents of a safe deposit box which was left to Theo by his Uncle Gilbert. Kim and Theo are hopeful that this inheritance will bring them wealth, believing that money or the lack of it is at the root of all their unhappiness.Among the items Theo finds in the box are several old journals. They have been kept by a man named Zachary Scott. Through the journals, Theo and Kim are transported back in time to the mid-1800s. The story of Zachary and his wife Gara profoundly influences Theo and Kim and helps to change their lives. Zachary suffers from a condition know as chimerism. He was born with extra body parts.
