"I am a thorn extractor, and my entire job is described as follows:

You have a thorn in your foot,
I bring a needle
(which, undoubtedly, also resembles a thorn)
and I try with it to remove the thorn
that is hurting your foot.

The first thorn, the one that hurts, and the second, which tries to remove the first, are similar: they are both thorns. When with the help of the second we remove the first, we must discard both."

This is the story of a fantastical journey from ignorance, where we all start, to wisdom, where we never arrive. Simriti - as the main heroine is called - accepts the challenge and sets off, accompanied by Jorge Bucay, on the dangerous exploration of her soul and mind.
