Set in the post-WWII era across the Agro Pontino, this novel follows the saga of the Giardone family and its central figure, Antonio—the "human mole"—a man forged in black poverty and hardened by excavating water wells. From a corrugated iron shack to claiming a fifteen-hundred-square-foot tuff-stone house, the story blends the ruthless chronicle of rural land reclamation with social redemption, the struggle against the moral poverty of freeloading relatives, and the devastating price paid in health and family relationships. A raw, unvarnished family epic that turns a deeply local story into a universal tragedy of survival, sweat, and perseverance.
