In this often humorous novella neither Alberto nor Martín can find a way to fulfill their desire for each other. They instead play a cat-and-mouse game within the confines of a macho-driven society where men can be campy and insinuate same-sex desire as long as it is done in apparent jest. Will their wishes remain just that, or will they eventualkly cross the boundaries that separate them, leading to long-denied love?
