"Silvia laughed. And what does January taste like? What did January know? Smoke from the stove. Dry and frozen meadows waiting for the snow. The naked body of a girl after a long solitude. It tasted like a miracle. Fausto has taken refuge in the mountains because he wanted to disappear, Silvia is looking for something of herself to then leave for who knows where. He is forty, she is twenty-seven: they try to touch each other, one night, while Fontana Fredda prepares for winter. Around them are Babette and her restaurant, and then a refuge at more than three thousand metres, Santorso who knows everything about the valley, expanses of snow and grass that widen one's breath. Even the wolf, which had been missing for a century, seems to have returned. He too in search of his happiness.
