After some time, the earth changed shape. Amidst a clearing, palms were planted. Structures were built. There was plenty of fish in the sea and fruits in the trees.
“Why would we ever go back to Monterrey?” exclaimed Armando to his family, who were growing bored with the loneliness of their new home.
While there was much to do, Priscilla and her daughter lounged around lazily, leaving La Chichimeca to carry much of the burden of collecting water and tending to the homestead. They missed their life in the city. They dreamed of their friends and drinking and laughing in cafés. The city was now linked by rail to Mexico City and industry was thriving, but here, it was mostly just the birds and rocks and waves. That would soon change.
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.
