Franco comes from an established artisan family in the town and although university educated follows in his father's footsteps as a cabinet maker. Nadja is a spirited and determined but anxious young woman with an ever - present phobia. Since her mother died giving birth to her she was brought up by her father a fervent Communist who named her Nadja after the wives of both Lenin and Stalin. Nadja is short for Nadezhda which means Hope in Russian. The story illustrates the legacy of history and the lasting effect it has on all our lives.
