When María caught Horacio sleeping around with another assistant, Verónica Becerra, she nearly killed him.

“You’re never going to change. You’ll never be anything again,” she shouted at him, still in bed with his lover.

She grabbed a kitchen knife, a sharp one, and threw it at him. It missed, clanking against the wall, and she walked out. After she divorced him and went to live with her mother in Laredo, he immediately latched on to Verónica and told her she was the only one for him. She was divorced as well and looking for any man that would have her. He seemed alright. A little rough around the edges, but he used to be someone. As soon as his divorce was finalized, they were married. It lasted two weeks.

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.
