Albania is the real main character of this collection. Meant as the final frontier between Western and Eastern Europe, squeezed by History, it is a place of division: north and south, rich and poor, Catholics and Muslims. It is also a fascinating and complex web of cultures where tolerance and sectarianism blend, as do religion and superstition, and people helplessly look for happiness, ineluctably bound with suffering. Short stories often close with a bitter and unpredictable end, as it is the case with the one after which the collection is titled, which focuses on the absurd ritual of making big communist slogans in stones, a practice schools were obliged to perform.
