In this tragicomic satire of marriage from one of Mexico’s most celebrated writers, a heartbroken and disillusioned wife sets out to remake her life after her husband’s infidelity.
As Nicol?s Lobato’s success begins to elevate himself and his wife into the upper tier of Mexico’s high society, his infidelities come to light, plunging his wife Jacqueline Cascorro into a carousel of flirtations and schemes that transform her quest for love and revenge into a veritable comedy of errors.
In the last volume of his celebrated Carnival Triptych, Sergio Pitol exposes the pretensions of the upper class, the hypocrisy behind its feigned propriety, and marriage itself as a carefully staged farce in which ambition and desire masquerade as fidelity and passion.
