His hero in the novel, Domi, portrays the life of a typical Jaba boy hardworking and highly sensitive, brave but very vulnerable, confident, and courageous, with so much intellectual potentials and resilience, yet limited by several factors. From the onset, Domis peculiar birth circumstances flash a bit of the challenges he was born to face as a half orphan in a very large but divided extended family and clan. As Domi grows up, the plot transits between the fictional Ham village of Zaza and the city settings, with each presenting thrilling and weird obstacles that he struggles to overcome. The Jaba culture and traditional beliefs are craftily interwoven with the modern trends in a boiling pot of unstable sociopolitical and unbearably harsh economic conditions that he must drink from to survive.
