- Summary
- "Two stories from memory and imagination, woven on the basis of autobiographical scaffolding: in the first story, an old man recounts his grandfather's life, through experiences and conversations from his childhood in the company of that grandfather who was completely illiterate, an ideological epicurean, an artisan-cobbler-craftsman and above all a tireless survivor who came to Zionism and the Jewish state. In the second story, the same old man describes his mother's work worn and bitter life, especially in her last years. He accompanies her, as the eldest son, and doctor by profession, in the process of self-decline and oppression while exposing the suffering, pain, depression and unhappiness that she transmits and spreads everywhere and in the face of his helplessness due to his inability to help her realize her soul's desire, the suicide she dreams of from a young age." --
