According to information provided to Bravanews by the author, the book delves into experiences of pain and resilience, portraying difficult journeys that, despite adversity, reveal the ability to be reborn and believe in a better future. With sensitive and reflective writing, Djeny Barros seeks to touch her audience through universal themes such as inner struggle, faith and perseverance.

The title suggests an arduous journey - "the path of stones" - symbolizing life's obstacles, while "an ache of hope" points to the duality between suffering and the light that drives us forward. The book is expected to speak especially to readers who value inspiring and emotionally charged narratives.

On the back cover of the book, the author highlights the depth of the message she intends to convey:

"The work we are presenting here is much more than a fictional story, it is a book that tells a story, albeit a light one, the story of many. This work offers those who read it an immense journey on the path of the stones behind a manifestation of strength and resistance that many are unaware of. A pain of unbreakable hope to face whatever is necessary.
We can only achieve success in our lives if we focus on today. It's too late for yesterday. And you can't depend on tomorrow. That's why success starts today. Come and experience these emotions. The story can also be yours. That's what I want to share with you. Regardless of any storm, may the path of stones be marked with hope for those who follow in our footsteps.
I invite you, the reader, to continue reading this work, and I hope that the story and message contained in this book will help you in some way and that you will enjoy reading it."

The author has said that everything is being done to ensure that the official launch takes place on April 23, World Book and Copyright Day. The literary community and the author's followers are looking forward to this contribution by Djeny Barros to Cape Verdean literature.

Bravanews will continue to follow developments on this work that is already arousing curiosity among readers and lovers of Creole and Lusophone writing.
