Description

Set in the fictional Mexican town of Ixtepec, this novel unfolds through the unique perspective of the town itself, narrating the lives and struggles of its inhabitants. As revolution and rebellion sweep through southern Mexico, the story delves into the intricate political landscape and its devastating impact on ordinary people. The narrative masterfully weaves together historical events, myth, and the deeply personal experiences of women caught in the turbulent era following the Mexican Revolution and during the Cristero War. Through the eyes of the town, we witness the intrigues, betrayals, and resilience of a community grappling with violence and societal upheaval.
