Ira and her children bear the marks of the past. Šarlota sees divinities in her own children. Koronis falls in love with an entertainer who performs at feasts. The characters' fates are intertwined, and their stories, resembling ancient myths, flow beneath the surface of images linked by inner connections. The book raises questions about the meaning of owning and of being, and shows the limits, pitfalls and traps facing people today, with sarcasm and irony.
