  • ""This work presents the tangled story of Humberto Peñaloza, the schizophrenic narrator-protagonist and his strange relationship with the Azcoitía family, for whom he has worked during most of his adult life and in whose shelter for the aged he is living at the beginning of the novel. Because of the extemely unstable psychological state of the narrator, the events of the story are related out of sequence, from various perspectives (reflecting the narrators various personalities) and with no regard to what is real as opposed to what is merely the narrator's illusion."--Masterplots II."
