It is in the middle of the1970s in a Swedish university city. Kicki and Eva-Lena, who have been best friends since school time, approach the age of thirty and try to live adult life as good as they can. Eva-Lena is married, while Kicki is still looking for a man to share her life with. The meeting with a younger male colleague makes Eva-Lena lose the grip of reality. Kicki tries to help and understand, while also recalling and reflecting on her own meetings and relationships. SOMEWHERE WITHIN US is the second part of three independent novels about Kicki and Eva-Lena. In the first, Hop in Then!, we met them as teenagers and cruising sisters in the1960s.
