Marcelo Birmajer's new story is about a couple who break up for no apparent reason. The couple, Ayelén and Luciano, had been together for five years.

They stopped seeing each other and stopped calling each other. The end was announced with the precision of a divinity's command, he writes. He says he is determined to find an answer to the question: Why had that love ended? He never stopped searching for new wonders in the underground humus of the field.
