Sinopsis / Synopsis:

A woman was almost called a plane. Another had a library in the back seat of her car. Another fractures her finger on the unruly shelves in her bookstore. The cigarette makers listen to readings while they work. The ironers remember poems. To all of them, I sing. Against fire, water, moths, dust, ignorance and fanaticism, an anonymous army of women takes care of the books. It is an intimate resistance, without epic, without revolution, without weapons.
