A Bulgarian woman is caught up in the political plotting between Bulgaria and Yugoslavia in the late 1940s. Having moved to Skopje as a university student, she is forced to make an impossible choice between freedom and her Bulgarian self-awareness. Her decision sends her to the hell of Tito's Yugoslavia, where the will of every dissenter is crushed and his hope for life is taken away. In her memoirs, Blagorodna Bozhinova describes the harrowing 16 months she spent in the Gerovo concentration camp, showing that human life often means nothing to a totalitarian government. Bozhinova started writing the book in the 1960s, but it did not become a fact until after the fall of communism.
