Encarnación del Mulhall
“... There were all those people isolated from their families: Their relatives found it very difficult to get here, to this place, fares, accommodation and time, if they worked …”
Encarnación del Mulhall
“ … but their relatives started getting here, it was obvious that they started getting organized. They got here by bus, … and, in order to spend as little as possible, they needed somewhere to stay, anywhere, with people who could put them up.”
Encarnación del Mulhall
“My house became filled with thin ropes - in the kitchen, in the bathroom - where they hung out their kids nappies.”
Bidu Burgueño
“I had a large pot in which I cooked sauce and also I had a very big one, large enough to boil many noodles in. Just in case. One never knew if there were to be two people, or suddenly there was a whole town of people dining together.”
