The story in this family chronicle of twenty years is conducted on behalf of the daughter Nina. Nina Eberlin comes home to visit her divorced parents and watch a photo album taken by her father and her. She reflects on how the photos illustrate the character of the family. She begins her story by reminiscing about the moment her parents learned that their son Rendoll had autism and how everyone in the family reacted to it.
Sam, a psychiatrist by profession, insisted on sending the child to a specialized institution, but the mother could not agree to it. It got to the point where they broke up. Her mother had three adult daughters by then, all "excellent children." The controversy also led Nina and her older brother Mack to overestimate their relationship to each other and their parents. It was only when Angelica realized Randall could be dangerous that a hard decision was made and the family was reunited. close

In the face of these challenges, Richard must decide who exactly is he playing for. close
