Description
After the loss of his mother, Lobbi finds himself at a crossroads in life. Struggling to cope with his grief, he decides to embark on a journey that will lead him to a remote Icelandic farm. There, amidst the barren landscapes and vibrant flowers, he begins to rediscover himself and what truly matters.
Rosa Candida, a rare and beautiful rose cultivated by his mother, symbolizes hope and renewal. As he tends to the garden, Lobbi reflects on his past, grapples with his responsibilities, and ultimately navigates the complexities of love and relationships. The farm becomes a place of healing, not just for Lobbi, but for those around him.
Through lyrical prose and poignant imagery, Auður Ava Ólafsdóttir explores themes of loss, connection, and the transformative power of nature. Lobbi's journey is not just about the search for his identity, but also about the enduring impact of those we love.
