Nora Garcia returns to her Mexican village for her ex-husband's funeral, grappling with complex emotions surrounding his death. As a cellist, her reflections intertwine music and poetry, echoing the themes of love and loss. The narrative unfolds like a musical composition, with repetitive motifs and variations that illustrate her grief and suppressed anger. Margo Glantz's rich portrayal of Nora's inner turmoil and cultural context evokes the depth of human emotion, placing her alongside literary greats like Virginia Woolf.
