Juan has devoted his life to caring for his mother and sister, who has cognitive impairment. A chance discovery about a dark chapter in his family's history leads him to question his love for his mother and his role as a self-sacrificing son. Sickened and enraged, he embarks on a journey across the world to reclaim his lost decency. Along the way, he reconnects with his first love and forms new friendships, experiencing a fresh start in a different culture far from his familiar life. This new perspective allows Juan to view life more generously, yet his past, fears, and miseries threaten his chance at happiness. The narrative explores themes of overcoming the past and finding a new outlook on life to achieve happiness. It invites readers to appreciate the nuances of daily existence and confront the challenges of living when feeling hopeless. Through Juan's journey, the author reflects on the complexity of our inner worlds and how discovering a new culture can profoundly alter our perceptions.
