Built on the folk belief that the day after a death a butterfly lands on the grave and carries the soul away, the novel brings back the myth of a Danube Atlantis, the vanished island of Ada Kaleh, and its people. Each butterfly mirrors someone who has died, a kaleidoscope of souls from all over the world, and each finds its way to immortality on the border between life and death. The most precious, the eighty-eighth, comes for Lazar Karaivanov, called Kosturo, an eccentric artist and killer whose restless travels across the globe and whose loves and killings fill his collection of butterflies.
