Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter
An eighteen-year-old law student writing news bulletins at a Lima radio station falls for his uncle's sister-in-law, a Bolivian divorcée fourteen years older, while a hack upstairs turns out ten serials a day until the characters start migrating between them. Odd chapters follow the courtship, even ones are the serials themselves, going progressively insane. Autobiography and pulp set to eat one another.
