Summary
This brief epilogue closes the circle. If the story opened with a solemn view of the Great Hall of Justice, it ends in the quiet of a living room on the other side of The Hague. Sophie and Norma get a final chance to chat about the events of the past three years. What was Sophie thinking when she joined the international judiciary? Where is the vision that was promised to her when she graduated from university? Norma does her best to cheer up her girlfriend. A 19th century novel, an orchestral piece by Ennio Morricone, and a glass of red wine do the trick.
