Main Ideas
- The clash of dreams and reality in Latin American society, where magic and brutality intertwine in a whimsical dance of everyday life
- The figure of the scholar and philosopher as the voice of conscience, standing against corruption, violence, and drug trafficking, embodied in the merciless Coca Lord
- A satire of the political and social system, where power, greed, and fear drive the story, and ordinary people are forced to seek salvation in miracles and faith
- An exploration of the nature of evil and resistance, where even the most innocent and pure souls are drawn into a vortex of tragedy and absurdity
- Magical realism as a way to express the inexpressible, to fill daily life with poetry and hope despite the darkness and chaos of the surrounding world
