At the start of the memoir, the author recounts the arrest of her family at their estate and their subsequent transfer to various prisons. She observes the stark transformation of her home life amidst the Revolution, detailing the challenges her family faced, their steadfastness in adhering to their moral values, and the deep connections among the prisoners.
