Notes:
In discussing the unusual topic of the book Leblanc states that "some readers will be distressed by the sexual mores of this story, and they may not be able to see it primarily as a tale of love and aging. Worse, they may not see that García ultimately celebrates love, which can conquer solitude, instead of sex, which cannot."
