In an unnamed town in the Ecuadorian Andes, a small wooden icon - La Virgen Pipona (the Potbellied Virgin) - conceals the documents that define the town's social history. That history has been dominated by the women of the Benavides family, a conservative clan. This novel presents a portrait of Ecuadorian life in the twentieth century.
