The communist regime has just collapsed, but\nthat is not the only noticeable change: the -surrounding houses, gardens and\nforests are full of vestiges of the time when the region belonged to another\ncountry. Together with her enigmatic neighbour Marta, the narrator accumulates\nthe stories of the hamlet, from the history of its foundation to the lives of\nits saints, from anecdotes about its wonderfully unique inhabitants to recipes\nand gossip.
