A very moving read. A young man recollects his past and how it shapes who he is. "Michael falls ill on his way home from school" Hanna is twice his age but becomes his lover. Later in life she is on trial for horrendous crimes but she refuses to defend herself. Michael knows that she is hiding something she considers more shameful.
