Feri Lainšček returns to his native Prekmurje with his latest novel. This time it is a beautiful saga, a love and historical novel at the same time, which touches on the time of the First World War. The central heroine is Elica, a farmer's daughter. In her desire for a better life, she marries a wealthy drug dealer from Murska Soboka, whom she later learns is a "mafia member". In her new life, she faces cruel corruption, impersonality and uncertainty. The work will captivate you with its plastic depiction of reality on the one hand and its poetic, picturesque and mysterious nature on the other.
