The Other Death

Main Characters and Their Development

• The main character of the story is Pedro Damian, a figure in whom the tragedy of human fate and the enigma of time are intertwined. His image is revealed through the prism of memory and remorse: once a despised and cowardly soldier, he becomes a symbol of inner struggle, the quest for redemption, and the impossibility of changing the past. Damian is a man whose life seems split into two destinies, and in this division his deep humanity is revealed. The secondary characters are witnesses and participants in the events, whose perspectives and memories highlight and emphasize Damian’s metamorphosis, creating an atmosphere of uncertainty in which the line between reality and fiction becomes elusive.
