“I never thought we would be able to spend our honeymoon in Santa María my love. How lovely it is. I feel just like a movie star.”

“If you want the moon, I’ll pull it down with a lasso. There’s no place too good for you, my love.”

“But how can we afford it? It must have cost a fortune. Your boss comes here. One of the girls in the salon said that Clark Gable was in town this week. Just drinking at the bar with a swarm of girls.”

“Don’t worry. It wasn’t nearly as much as you might think.”

“I am worried. We’re not rich. We have bills to pay.”

“There are new wings at all of the hotels. They keep adding rooms and can’t always fill them up. They are just as good as the old ones. The guy on the phone told me no one knows the difference.”

“That’s a relief. I’m going to tell my sister and the girls from work about it. They’ll all want to come.”

Santa Maria de las Rocas collection image

A novella by Nicholas Gill and Alejandro Cartagena.

A collection of 151 “expired photographs” that were thrown out, collected from a tianguis outside of Mexico City by photographer and archivist Alejandro Cartagena and then pieced together and reimagined by writer Nicholas Gill. The 151-page novella tells the tale of the fictional town of Santa María de las Rocas, located in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas.

The story traces this coastal community from its humble origins at the turn of the century to the 1980s, as it corresponds to real events in the history of this corner of Mexico. As years pass, the landscape changes and the community grows and develops. There’s corruption and violence, magic and hope. Characters fall in love and fall apart. Their voices are heard. Their songs are sung.

The existence of this project is designed to question the very nature of storytelling and its possibilities in the digital age. As such, it’s done as a CO0, for free public use.
