ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Canela presents us with two concurrent and profound stories, and moves us once again with his immense talent for creating unforgettable characters.
Juan Lencina is a kind firewood deliveryman with a quite life. Until, without any apparent reason, toads begin spilling out of his mouth. Yes, you read that right, TOADS! And then, Lencina becomes the talk of the town.
Little is known about miss Helen. She lives alone, is an English teacher, and on the weekends she likes to make noodles from scratch although she doesn't have anyone to invite over for dinner. But one day, the dough gets out of hand.
