The beginning of the twentieth century. The country is in deep crisis. The town of Losttown suffered the same fate. Unemployment, rising crime and hunger are all to blame for the prolonged drought, which destroys everything in its path. But Losttown found salvation in the person of the most ordinary school chemistry teacher - Daniel Simons. The Man Who Tamed the Rain. “Tears in the Rain” is a book about the will to live, about faith in yourself and in your strength, about the fact that giving up is the worst of sins. About how a simple teacher from a provincial town did not give up at the most difficult moment of his life and, thereby, became a hero for an entire generation.
