Description
The author poetically intertwines fact and fiction to retell modern Nicaraguan history. A famous phrase from legendary Nicaraguan poet Ruben Dario is used to spin this tale of fiction. It begins with the imaginary visit of Dario to Leon, Nicaragua, in 1907. There he writes a famous verse on the fan of a nine-year-old girl. Fifty years later, the same girl and her sister play a role in the plot to assassinate the dictator Anastasio Somoza.
