Raymundo Romero Vázquez, grew up the only son of farmers in San Luis Potosí. After a severe drought, the family fell on hard times and he moved in with his aunt, the famed singer Paulina Peña. Lonely, wealthy and in between marriages, she treated him like a Prince. He went to the finest schools and had his every need catered to by a team of servants. Well-traveled, he voyaged on steamships to America and Europe and learned to speak four languages fluently. In his early 20s, after university, he took a job at the Gran Hotel Ciudad de Mexico, just off the zocalo, the grandest of the era. Dapper and well spoken, he hobnobbed with the most glamourous of guests. While hesitant to leave the city, he accepted a promotion as the general manager of a new resort on the coast.
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.
