Among the bathhouse guests, you'll find mafiosos, outlaws, businessmen, and politicians. It's difficult to discern one's position without clothing, as many bear tattoos on their bodies, each telling the stories of their crimes. These tattoos are not mere accessories but rather scars on the skin, offering glimpses into their inner selves. In the bathhouse's special herbal baths, the tattoos dissolve, allowing them to leave as purified individuals. However, once they revert to their old ways, committing new crimes and indulging in vices, new tattoos emerge. To rid themselves of these marks, another bath in the herbal concoction is required. Thus, the cycle continues, and the bathhouse boasts a loyal customer base with frequent visitors.
The book would provide readers with various insights into the events inside and outside the bathhouse. Recurring characters engage in their own unique activities, whether sweating in the sauna, holding secret meetings, playing chess, or surrendering themselves to relaxation. Upon entering or leaving the premises, some guests can be seen in their everyday attire.
