A natural catastrophe in which she loses her entire family obliges Elena to abandon her town and seek help from a friend in a city on the coast. This friend introduces her to a life of prostitution. On becoming pregnant, Elena decides to flee the town, goes to another place to set up a store and educate her son, who, on getting older, asks her often about his father. Elena makes up a story and the boy decides to go and look for his father….A mixture of fantasy and realism, well written, with a background that speaks of divine filiation and that gives the positive message that it is possible to change one’s life.
