The novel is a subtle and complex narrative which takes the form of fictional letters between two Eastern European workers, Yarostan Vochek and Sophie Nachalo, who are separated after a failed revolution.

After twenty-five years without contact, they begin to write each other about their experiences, their lives, their hopes, and their memories of the past.
