By introducing the reader to fragments of his family's biography and describing his childhood experiences, the author pondered on a definition of the qualities of the elite and the intelligentsia. The latter term, essentially characteristic only for our post-partition and post-communist geographical region, is, together with its idealistic and useless dimension, forced to tackle daily reality.

The author went on a literary journey to the past. Describing successive 'miraculous' escapes of assorted members of his family - a great grandfather almost hanged during a peasant rebellion, a grandfather saved from being lynched, and the author's mother, who evaded a firing squad during the Second World War - he reached deep into the past. Nostalgically skimming over places and epochs, the author dusted off images of history. This proximity and intimacy of reminiscences features a past that comes alive and in the author's account becomes outright palpable.
