Jergovićeve priče na ironičan način oslikavaju jedno djetinjstvo i jedno odrastanje. Jedina stvarnost ove autobiografske proze su seljenja iz mjesta u mjesto i iz države u državu. Snaga i ljepota nalaze se u suptilnim nitima kojima tka svoje sličice.
Moravia kroz ove priče istražuje teme društvene nejednakosti, borbe za preživljavanje i ljudske slabosti, prikazujući ih s mješavinom humora, ironije i realističnog promatranja.
