Plots(1)

Genaro attempts to keep his books, pictures and other objects in his library, however, his friend Abelardo takes a large sum of these in a wooden box. Tired of arguing, Genaro allows Abelardo to seize everything contained in the box. When Abelardo takes a closer look, he realizes it is not a library, but a wake; a seemingly parable of the detachment of memories after the death of his friend Abelardo.
