El
Sabio,
an
old
critic
at
a
Caribbean
newspaper,
has
spent
all
his
life
as
a
bachelor.
As
a
child
he
idolized
his
mother
to
such
a
degree
that
after
her
death
he
could
never
attach
himself
seriosly
to
any
other
woman.
At
twelve
he,
by
mistake,
paid
his
first
visit
to
a
brothel
¿
an
act
frequently
repeated
throughout
his
lifetime.
On
the
eve
of
his
90th
birthday
he
decides
to
give
himself
"a
night
of
mad
love
with
a
young
virgin".
An
encounter
with
an
innocent
young
girl
is
set
up
by
the
madam
of
a
brothel
which
he
used
to
visit
when
he
was
younger.
Before
he
turns
91
he
goes
through
an
emotional
drama
that
includes
enough
love,
hate,
jealousy,
murder
and
disappointments
to
be
the
death
of
younger
people
than
el
Sabio.
