By the way, I was surprised to learn that my own dystopian novel, Chicano Frankenstein, is sold in UK bookstores including Blackwell's and Waterstones! I am honored.

Similar to the Vicente Fernández song Nacho heard at the park, we never know what is in the note. But as Abundio observes about the man in the song who doesn't read the note: "He just drinks wine and somehow he knows he’s lost her." What do you think was in the note from Nacho?
