Synopsis

At the dawn of the 20th century, a bastard son of an indigenous woman clings to a primary school fence, watching a world that refuses to let him inside. Decades later, that same barefoot boy would become one of the most prominent surgeons of his time.

What My Eyes Beheld, My Ears Listened to, and My Heart Felt is a raw, unvarnished journey through the geological layers of a family's existence. It is the chronicle of Andrés, the unyielding mason and surgeon; of "La Bola," the woman who fought a lonely war against systemic machismo to claim her place in the amphitheater; and of a grand building built to safeguard a spiritual heritage from the greed of the material world.

This is not a novel of heroes or villains, but a deep, mesmerizing flow of memory. It is an open invitation to walk through ancient cobblestone alleys, feel the biting mountain frost, and unearth your own forgotten yearnings parallel to this magnificent tale
