That Christmas,the electricity goes out. A forester mortgages his land and goes off to a seaside town looking for a wife. He finds a woman eating alone in the hotel. A farmer wakes half-naked and realises the money is almost gone. And in the title story,a priest waits on the altar for a bride and battles,all that wedding day,with his memories of a love affair.
