Malrico is short-sighted. So much so that he can’t see anything barely beyond his nose. Not even the pebble glasses his mother had worked so hard to give him were of any help. Then Teresa came. She, on the other hand, was long-sighted. Strangely, the two started seeing one another for no other reason other than they complemented each other. A tale that accompanies us from the main character’s childhood to his old age. A delicate story which, though succinct, succeeds in its intent of talking about a whole lifetime.
