Historien om hovedpersonen i denne boka, Athena, blir fortalt av mennesker som kjente henne. Hver og en tegner ulike sider av Athenas karakter, basert på sine egne overbevisninger og bekymringer. Temaet som går som en rød tråd gjennom boka er: hvordan vi kan finne mot til å være tro mot oss selv, når vi ikke en gang vet hvem vi er.

Kransen skildrer Kristins oppvekst. Hun ble som barn trolovet med sønnen på nabogården, men trasser seg til ekteskap med Erlend som hun venter barn med. Dette fører til konflikt med både familie, slekt og kirke. I Husfrue er Kristin blitt mor og husfrue, men livet med Erlend blir ikke slik hun hadde ventet. Vi følger henne gjennom det vanskelige samlivet og på den tunge botsgangen til Nidaros. Korset handler om Kristin som gammel og sliten blir tatt opp som leksøster i et kloster. Endelig får hun fred med seg selv og med Gud.

This book brings together a selection of Newton's fashion catalog work from as early as 1962 through 2003 and his last editorial photographs for US and Italian Vogue - all work he made as a "gun for hire." The client list includes: BiBA, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Versace, Thierry Mugler, Blumarine, "Italian Vogue", "US Vogue", "German Vogue", Villeroy & Boch, Bikini Calendar for "Sportsmagazine", "Absolute Vodka". His work is so powerful, so striking, that it defies categorization. In refusing to call his work "art," Newton leaves us free to do so, and judging from the amount of museum and gallery shows that have featured his work, it is clear that the option has been widely exercised.
