Description: The story of Marta, daughter of Sicilian shephards, takes place against the backdrop of their archaic society, which must yield to new customs and attitudes. Marta, with her differences, her odd gift of healing, and her difficulties with others, is at once a witness, and a symbol of a radical transformation, that overwhelms a world, a culture, and a tapestry of human connections. -- Back cover, translation by cataloger.
