María Susana, a town in the Argentine Pampas, with a peculiar triangular form and railroad tracks dividing the Italian settlers from the gauchos and mestizos, is the setting for this collection of loosely autobiographical tales. Some comical, others serious, all reflective and charged with sharp insights into the lives and doings of various unforgettable characters. These stories from a distant land resonate in the human heart beyond geography, time, or culture.
