The novel narrates a life story of an orphan boy, nicknamed Alone, who grows up alone in a mountain village in North Ossetia. His strange habits and personality rupture the calm of a village community, causing chaos, despair and resentment among the local people. Russian critics agree in the opinion that few writers feel the inherent tragedy of human existence so keenly as Cherchesov.
