Feeling old doesn’t bother Fina that much. Feeling useless is the problem. Her marriage is on cruise control, her stepdaughter resists the comfort she so obviously needs (and Fina so desperately wants to provide), and her biological daughter is making the choices Fina warned her against. She could have found meaning in her work at the state hospital, had it not been ripped from her by one of the very patients she used to help. She finds purpose in a friendship with Cal, a combat veteran who has taken up arts and crafts and watching romantic comedies as a defense against his past. She may also discover why people tell love stories, depending on what she remembers of their time together, and how she lines up those memories.
