For five years, Enn Padrik has postponed the investigation into the apparently religiously inspired suicides of his daughter and her friends at a commune near Viljandi, but now he can postpone it no longer. The search for truth spans two generations and narrates the changes in the wider world and Estonian society in particular.

The bunker-like cafe in Tallinn known as "The Cave" is the epicenter of bohemian culture in Soviet-era Estonia. The cafe's regulars, the "Cavemen," escape the dreary reality above ground with vodka and high-minded discussion in their hideaway. Mihkel Mutt's novel provides an illuminating look at life on the fringes of occupied Estonian society.

In this collection which contains both autobiography and fiction, the prominent Estonian artist and writer Toomas Vint, whose career spans the Soviet period and Estonia's re-gaining of independence, demonstrates his characteristic mischievous, dark sense of humour, an artist's eye for visual detail, and an experimental approach to form.
