Óscar Dávalos Orozco
Since he was a child, he went to school, where he learned to count; as the years went by, he also learned how to live in society. His desires were always healthy, he was a normal man: he bought when he had the desire and the money to spend. One day he knew what he wanted and his misfortune came, his normality of time turned into frustration. He dreamed of being Mexican, he longed to be truly Mexican; he found that this nationality did not exist in the market (Roberto González).
