When Anaïs discovers the impending expropriation of the family vineyard due to the upcoming construction of an estate, she demands that her father refuse out of dignity. From this point onward, a solitary struggle ensues, characterized by obsession and irrationality, as viewed by both relatives and neighbors. However, Anaïs appears determined to pursue this struggle to its ultimate conclusion.

Written in a sweeping and elegant prose style, Maica Rafecas vividly portrays the beauty of the vineyard and the devastating human cost associated with modern-day capitalism. September and the Night serves as both an elegy to the land and its people and a cautionary tale against those who would exploit it solely for financial gain. This book functions as a rebellion, a reminder of the essential values in life, and a call to action, all within the framework of a beautifully written, almost fable-like novel.
