After accusations of wrongful death by multiple patients in McAllen, Texas, Dr. Raúl Sánchez was fearful of prosecution, whether he agreed with the claims or not. His ancestral roots were across the border, though he lost touch with any family there as a child.

“It’s time darling,” he told his wife Fernanda, and daughter Sara. “We knew this day would come. This was never our home.”

As the family ventured south along the Gulf, they started to encounter other travelers all heading in the same direction. They all mentioned a place where the land was cheap, the beaches were like postcards and the people were free. Santa María sounded like just the place for Dr. Sánchez to set up a new practice.

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.
