The opening of the novel describes how a young boy's daily life is perturbed by events of the present, which are somehow inextricably linked to those of the past.

A protagonist whose first letter is T. (The Narrator) finds himself unprepared when his childhood friend (Besian) is faced with a bitter reality after returning from emigration, and facing a harsh reality back home he ends up as a defendant before the court, for a rather serious crime within the family, causing the death of his father.

At the same time that he learns about this event, he meets by chance on the street an old acquaintance (Sherif) that he had not seen since childhood, and learns the reasons for his disappearance without name and notice years ago. In a conversation with him, he begins to understand how the destinies of his friend and this person from the past overlap in their twist and turns, even though the events took place in two completely different eras.

In an effort to inform another close friend (Ilir) about these events, he was surprised by the appearance of a girl's figure in the latter's house, but Ilir himself was not found there.

While the narrative continues in the background the whole time the events are unfolding there is the parthenos' presence of his flatmate (Aikuna), and a homeless intriguing character (Behar) that they had accommodated in their flat to keep him from freezing to death on the street.

The events become even more tangled up as a lady (Mrs. Bekteshi) comes to the city, together with a squire from across the sea to fulfill her life mission in creating a political movement, which would shake the foundations of the political and social system.

This supporting cast of personages is excellent, each with their own distinct character and plenty of color and texture.

Despite the dramatic and heavy events that accompany the entire narrative, it is a pleasure to accompany the Narrator on his physical and emotional journey, thanks to the subtle humor and rather impressive descriptions that accompany this work. The unexpected ending is a fitting resolution to a story full of epic love feelings between friends and couples.
