Luis, his mother, his wife, his in-laws, his children, and some neighbors recall in a simple and often eloquent manner their experiences of everyday life before, during, and after the civil war. Nina Bonafacia, Luis’s mother, tells of the days...

LA SANTA JUANA
ÁNGEL: Esposa cara del Monarca eterno, contra cuyo poder no prevalecen las puertas tristes del Tartáreo infierno; las entrañas de Dios que se enternecen con el agua sabrosa de tu llanto remedio al mundo por tu ruego ofrecen. Delante de su altar, tálamo santo, llorando estabas el estrago horrible que al mundo anuncia confusión y espanto por la ponzoña del dragón terrible de las siete cabezas que en Sajonia niega la ley católica infalible.

Llorabas que se hubiese dilatado su blásfema ...
