Panama, 1980's: a teenager risks her life for food during The Invasion, a sailor smuggles denim into Cuba.
And the product of all their efforts is born in 1991, only to rot inside a locked room in Europe, almost thirty years old, until he meets his daemon.
According to Socrates, a daemon is the internalized divinity in each of us, be it a guardian angel, a friendly ghost, or an aspiration: the daemon is the personification of our true self, a representation of what remains when all the lies we've told ourselves are shed and burnt.
The Stoics called it: Logos.
But the daemon is also a muse - the one who writes when a writer has nothing to say, everything to fear, and nobody to blame - pushing us, as Seneca wrote, to "match our inspiration with its language."
Thus begins the messy story a daemon tells his human host, through his grandmother's life, having access to all his memories and all the ancestry which led him to perpetuate his own, all through the caustic lens of his Stoic logos.
New York, 2017: a little girl is born. The cycle is broken. She is safe, and she is loved.
