Made up of two girls two boys a mother and a father this apparently normal family working class and full of good intentions is the protagonist of a choral novel that spans several decades and whose stories pulsate with the desire for freedom and criticism of the pillars that have traditionally sustained and still sustain to a great extent the family institution: authoritarianism and obedience shame and silence.
