the novel establishes the dire circumstances in which the children find themselves. Set during a harsh famine in the late 1860s, Ante, who is only thirteen, takes the lead as he and his six younger siblings leave their home in search of food and shelter to avoid being sent to a poorhouse. Their mother has recently died, and their father succumbed to alcoholism, leaving the children vulnerable. As they trek through the cold and desolate landscape, the children’s conversations reveal their deep bond, as well as the hunger and fear that accompany them.

Their journey prompts reflections on community, family, and the strength found in unity amidst adversity. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
