The fish are all gone Trawlers swept them up by the ton Scraping away the sea floor To get every last one
The corn won’t grow The beans won’t either The soil’s been poisoned No life beneath her
The lagoons have been filled in No animals to hunt Paved over with concrete For hotels and bedsheets
Oil rigs, long abandoned Their black gold still there Leaking into the ocean Why didn’t anyone care?
Roads are crumbling Shops are closed Jesus won’t save you Better find something new
The boom is over No one prepared To invest in a life That could be shared
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.
