Elliptical and twilight version of Homer's Odyssey. The Penelope in this story is called Carmen, she has the character of a hard but heartfelt generation, and she waits in Santa María de Oló. Ulysses is Ramon, who returns to the village after thirty years of absence. A last journey whose end, beyond what has been lived, is the return to a homeland and a way of life that will be extinguished with them.
