In the midst of World War II, young orphans Penny and Baby find refuge in an Italian villa with their uncles, aunts and cousins. Despite the loss of their parents, their life goes by happily between games, music and endearing characters. However, tranquility is threatened when the racial persecutions of Fascism and Nazism reach the villa, transforming that paradise into a scene of tragedy and horror. Lorenza Mazzetti narrates her own childhood in this novel, offering a unique perspective through the eyes of Penny, a dreamy and mischievous girl fascinated by her uncle Robert, cousin of Albert Einstein, whose Jewish family will face the brutality of the SS in the summer of 1944.
