ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A novel that depicts childhood fears and the indelible mark that orphanhood leaves, by one of "the most outstanding Mexican narrators in recent years." ( El Gatopardo ) ???scar, Mar???a, and Rom???n meet at a boarding school that for them is a playing field but also a bridge to the dark night of the soul: none of the three can avoid pain, and all three share grandiloquent fantasies. Together they take on loneliness and orphanhood, and the need to make decisions that will affect the rest of their lives. Afterward, destiny separates them for twenty long years. When they reunite, the three are all different people: three regular adults with regular problems... but in their present and past there are knots to be untied: homosexuality, vengeance, matricidal guilt, unrequited love. Together again, they search for answers, both in their current circumstances and in the children they were.
