Set against the backdrop of Mexico's tumultuous history, the novel explores the interplay of magic and conflict among gods and humans. It delves into themes of rising Indian resentment, childhood jealousies, and ancient myths, including the intriguing figures of dzulúms and the Nine Guardians. The story captures the isolation and tension of a small, struggling landowning class as they desperately cling to their power. Irene Nicholson's translation brings Rosario Castellanos' powerful narrative to life, immersing readers in this rich cultural tapestry.
