In a single Spanish house the stories of people from Portugal, Italy, Herzegovina, Madrid and Belgrade cross. Objects, manuscripts and photographs that turn up in the house set off tales told one after another, as seductively as Scheherazade's, and through the fates of the characters a whole century is refracted. Bringing together the histories of Spain and Serbia, the novel is about solitude and love, passion and freedom, and about love as a family destiny of searching and enduring.
