This book depicts two cousins, Fernando and Vera, growing up together. Through their stories, the reader experiences the tales of an undefeated football team, a horrid sprained ankle, hospital visits, a Super Bowl party, and a police visit that leads to the beginning of Fernando’s troubles.

While he spends time in prison, he writes to Vera about his troubles, family life, hardships, regrets, dreams, and forgiveness. In the end, he promises to leave the lifestyle that cost him his freedom.

I read Charles Arthur's column in the Guardian from time to time so I was interested to see his take on the competition between these three behemoths. I think most people who have been around horses even a little bit would understand that.
The movie tells a love for a wonderful horse and presents the kind
