Education soon became on par with the finest schools in Mexico. No longer in the hands of the Catholic church, schools in Santa María quickly modernized. Teachers were brought in from wealthy neighborhoods in the Distrito Federal and in little more than a decade, the literacy rate rose from roughly ten percent of the population to seventy percent. Funding was established so students could compete in dozens of extracurricular activities, not just fútbol, but also basketball, sailing and fencing. Families no longer needed to send their children away for their secondary education, allowing families to stay together and build a life in this vacation paradise. It allowed the city to depend less on seasonal residents and become more of a year-round destination.
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.
