Lonely tree. Papianny M.

In the Greek village on the edge of the cliff that looks at the sea, there is a lonely tree. Once upon a time he was revered as a shrine, decorated the branches with offerings and conjured to calm the waves so that the storm would not rage. But since then for many years no one comes to the tree, has not been sitting in the shadow of his branches and does not suit the holiday in his honor...

After the long years spent in the Clinic for the mentally ill, the old woman Violet is returning to the village. Everyone considers her crazy and tell the fables about her past, and the village boys, led by the bully of Markos, are in every possible way the old woman is fading. And when valuable offers disappear from the church, everyone in the village begins to suspect the theft of the returned Violet. But Simim does not believe gossip and makes friendship with a lonely old woman. Learning more and more about her life, Simom understands that the truth about her is actually much bitter than any rumors.
