From the land of the midnight sun comes an extraordinary story about a journey to find the self.

Tracing her life from an abusive childhood in Australia to marriage and settling in Norway, Gabrielle Bergan tells of her search for a sense of belonging and the wish to find her real self.

In her late forties and reaching a critical point in her life, she asks the question that most of us ask sometime during our lives: `Who am I?' Dramatic events follow that lead to the breakdown of her marriage, the fragmentation of her personal identity, and the emergence of her soul - the self she was longing to find.
