"The Burning Field" On the solid, cold land, the dust on the shoulders of the poor is as small as grass. Because of poverty, a cow can decide the fate of a young girl. They were allotted to the ground, but there was not even a blade of grass to protect them from the wind. The raindrops that accidentally fell were swallowed up by the thirsty earth and disappeared in an instant. He committed a crime by begging for grass for the poor animals and hid for most of his life, but they still refused to let him go... On the plain, the wind was dark black and the time was long. No one remembers the time, only the silence contained in the loneliness of all things. Death is a hope for all. "Pedro Páramo" In order to fulfill my mother's last wish, I came to the small town of Comala to look for my father Pedro Páramo, whom I had never met.

However, the only son he recognized fell from a horse and died, and the beloved wife he married after half a life went crazy and died. He cursed the entire village, and he could not escape the disaster... Dionisio Binzon in "The Golden Rooster" has a disabled arm and can only make a living as a "caller" in the village.

The golden rooster repeatedly won in subsequent cockfights, unexpectedly giving him the courage to live. Traveling all over the country, Bin Song met a "capon girl". Wherever she was, he was invincible. Just when he thought things were going smoothly, fate had its own plans...
