David, the principal character in this book, is buried in the first few pages. Luckily for us he has left behind a testimony of his youth and details of how his life then is different to how it has been now. This is not much use to the grieving wife, Mary Ann, as it is written in the Basque language. It is a lot more interesting and accessible to his childhood friend Joseba, who has come to America and David's ranch to meet him for one last time. We have to hope it is as interesting to us.
