If a woman dependent on her husband's power and property, only after he died to get free, then having an affair while her husband was alive, seems to be a kind of women's rights for it. While holding this view, but I do not think "Puebla song" How girls right color, but more like a woman's identity extraordinary "affair."

Catalina heroine was just a farmer's daughter, in less than fifteen years old married thirty-year-old Andres generals, the generals, later became governor of Puebla, and almost became Mexico's president. I know nothing about the history of Mexico, but by the relevant conjecture read novels, the twenties and thirties of Mexico, probably the wave of being dictatorial and "revolutionary" democracy, repression and revolt swept by it. Andres was this torrent of a successful beach-goers, from the poor mingled generals, for their own interests, he can do anything, kill as worthless.

Catalina and Andres met at the colonnade - everything Puebla took place in the colonnade, the generals started to pursue her, and eventually held a simple and almost brutal military-style wedding . After the marriage they have a delicate relationship, Andres to Catalina fits and starts, and you can not understand Catarina Andres. In fact, their lives in marriage, the generals are dominated by Catalina, and she sometimes submissive, sometimes revolt.

Catalina seventeen years old when the first pregnancy is the first time an affair with one of her old school. After the birth of her daughter, Andres brings his ex-wife's children (age and similar care of the household), and later gradually brought back more than one child, have to take care of her. Catalina hate pregnancy, only had two children, then she had to admit that he does not like her child, not like the general's children.

Later became governor Andres, Catalina arrange to do some work, such as charity, preparations for the banquet and the like. She gradually began activities for the general understanding: a mistress, and American businessmen collusion, embezzlement of property of others, the assassination of political opponents or reporters, put the strike. She knew the generals to kill, but do not believe he personally killed many people; she was disgusted by the behavior of the generals, but the courage to flee. She did, except with the generals, is to find their own happiness. During this period, Catalina has been in love with the president's secretary, and wanted to sleep with him, embarrassed that the other party was actually gay.

Andres occasion of the end of the term of office, his big chloroform Duelfer became president. As a staff, the family moved to Mexico City, from ordinary citizens to become governor of his wife, suddenly let nothing Catalina feel empty. One time when generals and go out, Catalina encountered in the theater orchestra conductor Carlos, he is the son of former superiors general, larger than their age. Catalina no extricate themselves in love with Carlos, rapid warming of their relations, to the point of gluey. General do not seem to ask only the conversation between Carlos and her own political opponents, while Catalina was afraid generals would kill himself.

During Halloween, the generals back to their friends to go on holiday in Puebla, including Carlos. Catalina was very happy the day she took the children out to play and Carlos at night while asleep generals secretly went to his room. One day, Catarina was about to go out and Carlos, the generals let her leave, making love, she could think about is their own passions and Carlos in the fields, thinking of the man you love more than anything . Wait until Catalina finally get rid of the generals Carlos go, but only two children and other at the church door, they say guns taken away Carlos. Catalina deliberately let the generals go to people and know Carlos places of detention from the driver there, she informed the prosecutor general did not give a relationship, and so find Carlos, he was dead.

Carlos's death, Catarina distraught, she stayed in Puebla. The next year, in general a daughter's wedding, Catalina Alonso met film director, and later became her lover, and quietly broke up. During this time, Andres gradually losing ground, brother no longer trust him and instead prepared to nominate another brother Sin Fu Ai Gesi for president. Andres powerless, he was sick, growing old, soon died.

At the funeral, Catalina ferocious cry, I think of Carlos; then cry, think of the future happiness of life, and burst out laughing.

For Catalina, she and this man of many stories, be love? I think that was more appropriate to describe with lust. The first time the generals and sex, but also for their Catarina feel the thrill of whereabouts gypsy woman divination. Her initial feelings of the general's more like a dependent, just as dependent on his father, and in the heart actually still helpless. Later, she used to rely on general (while generals need her), to enjoy the benefits brought about by the general's momentum, the heart even if he wanted to resist, the body is not willing. Like her friend Barbie, the young lover and want to get married, but do not want to lose the property of the old generals.

Catalina relationship with Carlos is the most memorable until the last still thinking about him. However, in my opinion, this is not much difference with the feelings of the president's secretary, if the other party is not gay words. Carlos characterization of the greatest, is the debut concert, the audience's enthusiasm, again and again the curtain call, Catalina's mesmerizing. This is indeed more like a woman fed up with her husband to flirt a talented person, but looking for a new stimulus. I think Carlos this person, it is no charm.

From this book, I feel love, only lust after another. If the only image of love, it touches on the feelings of Andres Catalina, and in the last days, he once said to Catalina:. "You're still the light of my life," but this love, not many women would like it.
