- Summary:
- "Two paths, means or methods to make an everyday, personal, emotional story, and thus achieve something, a simple thing, say how I see my city when touring it and having traveled it for about sixty years. These two paths formed a route that goes from one place to another. The first, to get to a certain place, goes from a deco-indigenist architectural modernity that begins in 1928 and ends in 1957. The second goes to another more everyday place, from the inside of a pot with geraniums to some trees of the middle lane of a modern avenue of 1950; from a garden to the shade of trees as common as the spoonbill willow, a red thunder, a very rare tule or ahuehuete or the sad aroma of a cempasúchil, or the sweet taste of the blackberry jelly of Doña Luisita. (HKB Translation) --Page 9.
