Synopsis | In 1915, the Sinaloan general Salvador Alvarado entered Yucatán as governor. He cut privileges to the church and the landowners, promoted the feminist movement, fought against the slavery regime and canceled the company stores. Above all, he promulgated laws that preceded the national ones in the 1917 Constitution. Fragmentary and polyphonic, this novel gives voice to different protagonists to revive racism, slavery, and other entitlements enjoyed by the «casta divina». It offers not only a new light to the past, but a clearer mirror for the present. |
