About This Novel

The second part of the Romanian trilogy. Lola, a college student from a poor rural area, sold her body in order to go to college in a big city, but was suddenly found committing suicide in her dormitory. The protagonist and several of her classmates try to figure out the truth behind Laura's death. Unexpectedly, under the shadow of Ceausescu's totalitarianism, the path to find is confusing, and violence follows them. "The Beast of the Heart" is full of meaning, the "inner beast", told to the protagonist by his singing grandmother, and is used throughout the book.
