P63 / VOLUME 1 / The Orange Flower
The Village of Two Memories
In San Isidro, the Day of the Dead also awakens memories of those who might have survived. In 1910, Remedios Salvatierra prepares the altar, receives the portraits, and keeps the great family ledger. Every object must find its place. But this year’s accounts do not all describe the same absences. Some of the dead seem to have lived, elsewhere, a life their loved ones recognize.
