Pox Special #9/1986

In "Det förtegna hjärtat," memories unfold in layered flashbacks as Heraclio reflects on a past that haunts him: a youthful encounter with the enigmatic Luba, whose arrival in town left an unexpected mark. Years later, a chance reunion with her and a shared ride home stir long-buried feelings, revealing a secret that has shaped lives in silence.

In "En amerikan i Palomar," a young American photographer named Howard Miller wanders the quiet streets of Palomar, capturing the lives of its residents through his lens. When he meets Tonantzin, a local woman with dreams of Hollywood fame, their chance encounter sparks an unexpected connection. After a mysterious visit to ancient ruins with Theo, Miller returns home disoriented—only to find Tonantzin waiting for him, her presence lingering like a memory he can’t place.
