Summary
This collection presents short fiction centered on Romani life and customs. One story focuses on Dimitru’s old mill on the Bistritza River in Moldavia, a place that serves as the village’s economic and social center, where grinding grain, sawmill work, oil pressing, and local gatherings all take place. The narrative also draws on village legends and family memory, including stories of the mill’s supposed refusal to grind stolen grain. It introduces Dimitru, his son George, and the role of the mill across generations.
