Whole
Have you ever dreamed of a better life? Have you ever felt lost and wished for a trusted advisor to guide you? "Whole" is a contemporary tale of two people who, on a bet, take a trip to the country. Discovering an inn in the midst of an apple orchard, they are sheltered from an unexpected storm by three unusual old people. But a storm of a different sort follows them into the inn, where they are confronted with their pasts and yet are blown away by gifts of wisdom and unconditional love. What began as a pleasant distraction from their frenzied lives, became a journey to Wholeness by discovering the mother-within.

A Latin American Existentialist Ethos
With their emphasis on freedom and engagement, European existentialisms offered Latin Americans transformative frameworks for thinking and writing about their own locales. In taking up these frameworks, Latin Americans endowed them with a distinctive ethos, a turn towards questions of identity and ethics. Stephanie Merrim situates major literary and philosophical works—by the existentialist Grupo Hiperión, Rosario Castellanos, Octavio Paz, José Revueltas, Juan Rulfo, and Rodolfo Usigli—within this dynamic context.
