The novel follows a generation of Greeks who, from the 1960s on, wanted to change their own lives and everyone else's. Victor, Aris, Christina and Sotiris live through upheavals that overwhelm them and that they never feel are theirs, getting by on lies and guilt. In trying to break with the past, they end up creating a new version of the very false god they thought they had thrown away, and their portrait of modern Greece differs from the one readers have learned to recognize as their own. The narrative neither analyses nor describes at length, leaving readers to carry the story further themselves.
