Mario, her 22-year-old son, tries to wipe the acid off Eligia's face, but his own fingers burn.\r\n\r\nWhat follows is a failed attempt to reconstruct Eligia's face, first in Buenos Aires and then in Milan. Mario, the narrator, becomes the shadow and witness of the reconstruction attempts to repair his mother's ravaged face. He must also confront his own terrible existence and identity, both linked to an Argentina that he sees disintegrating around him. Mario will tell us of his adventures in Milan as he tries to find answers to a host of questions. During this time he struggles with alcohol and loneliness; he meets Dina, a young prostitute with whom he maintains a relationship of some affection but of a certain apathy at the same time. A man who tries in various ways to find his way to his father and in this attempt to explain himself, justify his existence, find meaning and dare to be happy. A book full of inexplicable acts of violence; of suicides, quick by a bullet or slow by alcohol; of meaningless lives; of a filial duty that tastes of resentment and inability to love; and journeys that lead nowhere.\r\n\r\nBased on the tragic lives of the renowned Ra\u00fal Bar\u00f3n Biza (wealthy politician and renowned writer) and his wife Rosa Clotilde Sabattini.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>RELEVANT DATA: <\/strong>Based on a real and tragic family story (the renowned Ra\u00fal Bar\u00f3n Biza, a wealthy politician and renowned writer, and his wife Rosa Clotilde Sabattini), Jorge Bar\u00f3n Biza's <em>The Desert and its Seed <\/em>was self-published in 1998, three years before the author committed suicide.
