==Synopsis==
Vranje, end of the 19th century. Sofka is a 26-year-old beautiful virgin from a ''čorbadžija'' family. However, after the fall of the Sanjak of Niš to Serbia and the following social turmoil, her family had lost most of their fortunes and her father Efendi Mita had settled in the Turkish territory for business, leaving his daughter and wife behind and barring her from marriage. One day, Mita returns to Vranje and it is revealed that he has lost all his money and is now forced to have Sofka married off. The suitor is Tomča, the 12-year-old mentally retarded son of ''gazda'' Marko, a social climber and half-bandit who became rich thanks to his partnership with the Albanian leader Agim. Sofka agrees to save her family from financial troubles and marries Tomča but it soon becomes evident that Marko actually wanted Sofka for himself, to give him healthy and beautiful children. During Sofkas first wedding night, ''gazda'' Marko tries to claim his right to have the bride first but Sofka locks herself and Tomča in the bedroom while Marko was beating his wife and begging Sofka to let him in. Suddenly, Marko, scared from the desire he has for Sofka, runaway on his horse to go and fight Albanians. He was wounded and he died. After his death, Sofka and Tomča lived happily, he grew into a nice and strong man. Their happiness was interrupted with the arrival of efendi Mita who asked for the money he was promised by gazda Marko. Tomča was devastated by the fact that Sofka was actually bought by his father. He beats Sofka and goes away on his horse. That was the beginning of the end for Sofka. Their happiness was over. Now, Tomča was beating her, insulting, raping... To get away from that reality she started drinking. Soon, their children were born retarded, ill, and weak... That was the curse of the 'impure blood' that had begun a long time ago, with Sofka's ancestors. Her beauty was gone. She became old and quiet, uninterested in anything but drinking and sitting in silence. At the end of the novel, Sofka is sitting near the fireplace with no fire in it, only ashes. She is seen going through the ashes with a stick while her children are running around the house, fumbling things.
