As a pilgrim moving from one country to another, from one ideology and from one experience to another, the narrator of this testimonial novel, documents a little known journey. The tour begins with the memory of a humble Jewish settlement of Entre Ríos at the time when Baron Hirsh was active in rescuing his European countrymen from persecution and anti-Semitism. The journey continues into the present, punctuated with offbeat characters who grope with history and revealing confessions.
