The story follows their struggles to survive in the face of poverty, social injustice, and political turmoil, all while navigating the complexities of their relationships and the challenges of city life. The novel explores themes of resilience, loss, hope, and the search for belonging, examining the human capacity to endure hardship while maintaining dignity and compassion.
