Nine stories from folk traditions around the world, originally handed down orally (often in dialect), whose theme is Earth, one of four basic elements of nature, but also a physical and mental, origin and culture, from which all kicks off: Black Africa from the Far East, from American Indians to the shores of the Mediterranean, the protagonists are women, girls, goddesses, princesses, models of female characters who struggle and fight for their survival and independence. Dominates all the spirit of the Mother Goddess, or Mother Earth, which accompanies the ups and downs in their love and attention.
Nine tales of the discovery rites of passage, the beliefs, and fears that characterized the cycle of human life in the ancient civilization and the earth can be like a cave that hides treasures, for example in the shape of a weeping willow to the Japanese tradition, and the world as wild and unspoiled becoming a sacred animal such as the bison in the traditions of American Indians.
