His power extended not only to the Tito's political apparatus' political region but also to very traditional patriarchal Montenegro 's family structures. Simo's role in preserving existing relationship among sexes, for which Montenegro is notorious, becomes the key one in the author's search to meet the man he has never met before, and who is now his father-in-law.
