The central theme of this collection is aging, with each story exploring the experiences and absurdities that accompany life's twilight years. Set in both the 19th century and contemporary times, characters confront their mortality with varying attitudes—some with acceptance, others with defiance or resignation. In the final tale, "Stille," the symbolism of the lemon as a representation of death is highlighted through a poignant meeting of aging men discussing their lives and impending ends at a lemon table, ultimately embracing the inevitability of death.
