Seeing how guests needing a break from the sun and sand were often looking for things to do, locals began offering different excursions from Santa María. There were sailing lessons and boat rides through the lagoons to look for birds and other wildlife. Oddly enough, the favorite daytrip was the mule treks into the mountains to the south. The mostly urban travelers from cities like Monterrey and San Luis Potosí wanted to experience “The Real Mexico,” they liked to call it. While rapid development had caused those living by traditional means to adapt decades ago, the rustic nature of the lives of ranchers and muleteers in nearby villages still retained those sought-after qualities.
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.
