Aurora tem trinta e quatro anos, é oncologista em Troms e aprendeu cedo que o mundo é mais legÃvel quando organizado em silêncio. Ela acompanha pacientes que estão morrendo com precisão e dignidade - e mantém o mesmo controle sobre tudo o mais na sua vida.
Celine tem vinte e sete, vem do Texas e chegou ao mesmo hospital com uma câmera analógica e a decisão de ocupar o espaço que a medicina não alcança. Ela não cura. Ela fica.
O que se desenvolve entre elas é lento e inevitável - construÃdo em corredores vazios, Polaroids deixadas sobre balcões, uma piada involuntária sob a aurora boreal e noites no apartamento de Aurora onde o silêncio, pela primeira vez, tem outra pessoa dentro.
Aurora narra tudo com a sobriedade clÃnica que é o único idioma que
conhece. E é exatamente por isso que o leitor vê o que ela não consegue nomear - e percebe, antes dela, que algo está errado.
Celine é um romance sobre o tipo de amor que não cabe em declaração, sobre a ironia trágica de ver demais e entender de menos, e sobre o que fica quando alguém que iluminava o mundo vai embora.
