The young man lies on the sofa, reading. He has no job, no friends and he doesn’t go out. The young woman is desperate. She wants something to happen. The newly married couple are growing further and further apart.
Every word is an outstretched, helpless hand that is not acknowledged. The new parents’ vulnerability is palpable. How should they relate to each other, and to love, now that the reality of everyday life has hit?
