How not to become angry at the whole world—and above all at your classmates—when they call you the daughter of a murderer, despise you because of your mother’s work, and treat you like a beggar and a petty peddler. What else is left for Darina besides ignoring them and pretending it doesn’t touch her, that she’s thick-skinned? Clenching her teeth, against everything, she sets out to pursue her dream and play by fate’s rules—letting it underestimate her. Accepting the cruel rules of life, she still refuses to change herself, no matter how hard it is. And the reward for all Darina’s efforts will be true love and loyal friendship.
