From the first page, we know the farmers' revolt of 1987 will happen, has happened, is doomed to happen. The timeskips add to this feeling. The story begins with the arrests months after the revolt. Flashbacks show the events leading up the garlic glut. Tension and anger builds. A socio-political trainwreck in slow-motion, experienced through the eyes of the front car passengers.
