Divination. Benedetti M.

“It is forbidden to cry over the accounting book - the ink will blur.”

“Division” was written in 1959, when the revolution won in Cuba and brought the feeling of upcoming changes to Uruguay. Therefore, the little office man Santom does not dream of an overcoat (like the Gogol Akaki Akakievich, but about unheard of wealth - about love. He writes a diary not an impersonally calligraphic, but nervous, owned handwriting. Santom comes up with a love that becomes a reality, he extends his back and sees the sky and sees the sky and other people around.

But this is only a respite, a ghost of happiness, the last deception.
