The novel takes place in Israel in the 60s - during the era of the undivided dominance of the socialist workers' party Mapai-Maarach (current Labor). A prominent Mapaev functionary, hardened politician and demagogue Amits Dolniker ends up for treatment in a remote village, where no one needs his hours-long speeches about how “the party and the government show tireless care for ordinary workers,” no one asks for his wise advice. Dolniker, a master of political intrigue, manages, through cunning constructions, the introduction of a “system of privileges” in the form of providing a simple cart for the headman, to split the entire village into two hostile camps that hate each other. And again Dolniker is on horseback, everyone runs to him for advice, everyone needs him... The peasants, carried away by political intrigue, forget to repair the dam, which leads to a tragic outcome... Undisguised political adventurism, cheap social demagoguery of the powers that be, at whom the arrows of Kishon’s satire are aimed, are inherent, alas, not only Israel...
