The world begins and ends in Tocoloché—or so believed Antiocu Cassola, who’s never left the island of Sardinia, nor his sheep. But his friend Virgilio Ventosu, “The Mathematician,” has a mission: to usher Antiocu into the modern era, by getting him online. For all his defiance, there is one temptation the shepherd cannot resist, and that is the prospect of winning over beautiful Andriana, a woman already well-versed in the language of the “’net.” Now that the shepherd is on the World Wide Web, will his love be requited—or will he have to find a way to escape?
