Guantanamera, guajira guantanamera, cultivo una rosa blanca, en Julio como en Enero, …

BLOOD: Poetry, by Carmen Boullosa
BLOOD If it is the moon that governs the tides, what strange star controls the blood of our two different bodies?

FICTIONS A collection of stories, words coming from a time long gone, but the two sides in which the book is divided (The Garden of Forking Paths, and artifices).
