The novel narrates the love between Marisa Mallo, daughter of a reactionary family, and the Republican doctor Daniel Da Barca during the war and postwar years. The jailer Herbal observes them and, guided by a carpenter's pencil, discovers the many forms of love: a tragedy that heals and a struggle against oblivion.
