Alone in front of abandoned houses, Yonah sat in the shade of a banana tree. Distracted he drew four points on the ground: one stood for the Old Christians of Spain, another the Muslims and the third for New Christians. The fourth point represented himself, Yonah ben Helkias Toledano, a Spanish Jew whose brother and father were murdered in late 15th century Toledo. Deep in his heart he longed to be Jewish like them, but he had become forced to live a different existence. Now, his true religion has become one of survival, moving from place to place to avoid the dreaded Inquisition. He was always a solitary man and had always remained on society's periphery.

Blurb in Spanish: "Solo delante de las casas abandonadas, Yonah se sentó a la sombra de un plátano. Trazó distraídamente cuatro puntos en la tierra: uno representaba a los cristianos viejos de España, otro a los moros y el tercero a los cristianos nuevos. El cuarto punto representaba a Yonah ben Helkias Toledano. Sabía que no era un judío como su padre ni las generaciones que lo habían precedido. En lo más hondo de su corazón hubiera deseado ser como ellos, pero ya se había convertido en otra cosa. Ahora su verdadera religión era la de ser un judío de simple supervivencia. Se había dedicado a vivir en solitario y se había mantenido siempre al margen de todo."
