An Ecuadorian Festivity (ePub)

For many years I had been trying to write this little book. The ideas, the visions of what I wanted to mold in words, boiled, circulated in my mind, struggling to come out, with a desire to express it. And I retained them.

The characters I mention are real, they shared together with me the emotions and experiences of those days; many of them are already dead, also, I don’t remember the names of others.
