Description and Table of Contents

Description

"I've been summoned. Thursday, ten sharp". Thus begins a day in the life of a young factory worker in totalitarian Romania. Her crime? Sewing notes into the linings of men's suits bound for Italy. "Marry me" the notes say, with her name and address. As she rides the tram to her interrogation, she thinks over the events and people of her life under terror. In her distraction, she misses her stop, and alone on an unfamiliar street, Lilli discovers something far worse than anything she had feared.
