This book features the intertwined stories of three main characters: a director of a financial company, an artifact thief, and a call girl. Inci Aral uses the stories of these three characters to discuss themes of love and modernity, showing people struggling with issues of success and failure, work and pleasure, and how to develop relationships. It raises such questions as how one can balance an uncertain future with a desire for success, how changing values impact our modern lives, and what the future holds.
