Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set against the backdrop of post-World War II Romania, the narrative explores the dramatic arrest and deportation of Transylvanian aristocrats as communism rises. The Romanian Workers' Party orchestrates the dispossession of landowners, branding them as class enemies. As they endure harsh labor in quarries and factories by day, the aristocracy clings to their heritage, gathering secretly at night to uphold the rituals of their past. This dual existence highlights the clash between tradition and the oppressive new regime.
