| Sumario: | The author begins with the notion of Alfredo Pareja and the act of writing (she maintains that through his characters he was able to give lite to his ideas and polítical philosophy), and shows that a key example of this is the building of his character, the 'mulata' Baldomera. It reflects upon the author and his development of characters.

Therefore, «What does Baldomera represent? She is abroken body -split, scarred and suffering-. An example of the obscenity of misery» |
