Newfoundland, 1919. Buffeted by winds, an unwieldy aircraft – made mainly from wood and stiff linen – struggled to take off from the North American island’s rocky slopes. Cramped side by side in its open cockpit were two men, freezing cold and barely able to move but resolute.

În Dublin, prietena ei cea mai bună, Eileen, trece printr-o despărțire și începe din nou să flirteze cu Simon, pe care îl știe încă din copilărie.

A parte il fatto di essere fratelli, Peter e Ivan Koubek sembrano avere poco in comune. Peter è un avvocato di Dublino sui trent'anni - affermato, abile e apparentemente irreprensibile. Ma, ora che gli è morto il padre, prende farmaci per dormire e si barcamena con fatica fra due relazioni con donne molto diverse: il primo, imperituro amore, Sylvia, e Naomi, una studentessa universitaria per cui la vita è un'unica lunga barzelletta. Ivan è un campione di scacchi ventiduenne. Si è sempre considerato uno sfigato, un paria, l'antitesi del suo disinvolto fratello maggiore.
