A small town in Dobruja, a chemical engineer and former member of the Peasants’ Party trying to keep out of reach of the communist purges, a beautiful girl who works the till at the local grocery and carries the indelible stigma of being a former tavern keeper’s daughter. In the blackest years of Romanian communism, when values were turned upside down, people lost a lifetime’s work and prison threatened anyone of the wrong origins or politics, an unlikely love story begins, helped by those who overcome their fear and stay kind, and marked by painful betrayals. The story grows out of the author’s earlier Medgidia novel.
