Vicente remembers the lights that shone within the city he was born in, and the darkness he and his family have been dragged through in his eighteen years of life. Having jumped from home to home the moment he was born, he prays, he hopes for a place he can settle down in, as bright and beautiful as his birthplace. This is the biography of a boy who cannot fit in, forced to take up the role of caretaker of his younger siblings, too good to be bad and too bad to be good - unremarkable, insignificant, malcontent with his malcontent. This is a telling of family, love, friendship, good food and home.
