Set in Miłosz's native Lithuania before the Great War, it narrates Tomás's childhood and adolescence in a valley populated by demons and apparitions. Between the pagan and the religious, the work blends autobiographical memory, scenes of rural life, and reflection on the disappearance of a traditional world.

Recommended for readers of classic and coming-of-age novels, with an interest in twentieth-century European narrative and Miłosz's prose.
