A brother and sister share a close, intimate bond across nearly twenty years: childhood and school crushes, later passions, emotional crises, failures and successes. The ugliness of everyday Bulgarian life enters only as far as it reveals this private inner life, which people tend either to talk about in borrowed phrases or to keep quiet about. The book is about love and about the isolation that waits for those able to feel it.
