El tercer país

El tercer país

Sainz Borgo, Karina

Everything happens on a border, the one that separates the eastern mountain range from the western one. Angustias Romero flees the plague with her husband and hers, two of her children tied behind her back. The twins, seven-month-olds, die on the way, and, after storing them in shoe boxes, the couple goes to bury them in El Tercer País, the illegal cemetery run by the mythical Visitación Salazar. Abandoned by her husband, Angustias will fight alongside the gravedigger against a hostile environment where the only law is dictated by those who are armed, where time is marked by fish, parties and the mysterious toys that someone leaves on the graves of the two children, while the danger and violence grow until the last minute blurring the boundaries between life and death.
