Plot summary
Kenzaburō has lost his wife. Among the things she left behind is a letter asking him to carry her ashes to Lake Windermere, in England's Lake District, a landscape tied to the Beatrix Potter stories she loved. He is to make the journey with their son, Toshi, and the two of them leave Tokyo together. Grief is not the only thing that surfaces along the way: memories of the marriage come back, some sweet and some painful, and the strained bond between father and son weighs on the trip as they head for the lake where her ashes are to be scattered.
