Agustí Ribera grows up as the second son in a modest household in the village of Olp, in Pallars, at the beginning of the twentieth century. While his elder brother is destined to inherit the land, Agustí has to earn a living from childhood: first studying and working in Rialp and later in France. His own account in the past tense covers his childhood, leaving his father's home and his exile in Paris after passing through two concentration camps.

For readers of contemporary fiction in Catalan interested in rural life and exile.
