520    Bernardo Atxaga's Water over Stones follows a group of 
       interconnected people in a small village in the Basque 
       Country. It opens with the story of a young boy who has 
       returned from his French boarding school to his uncle's 
       bakery, where his family hopes he will speak again. He's 
       been silent since an incident in which he threw a stone at
       a teacher for reasons unknown. With the assistance of twin
       brothers who take him to a river in the forest, he'll 
       recover his speech. As the years pass, those twins, now 
       adults, will be part of a mining strike in the Ugarte 
       region, and so take up the mantle of the narrative, just 
       as others will after them.
