His vain efforts are followed in his interactions with an unsympathetic police force. Though the crime and victims are clear, he is outcast due to his wealth, and the government cares little outside of apprehending the kidnappers. Following are some religious stories that slow down the intricately established rhythm of the book. I believe that they take the emphasis off of the Bolivian musicbrainz people and place it on the broader topic of human spirituality. Luckily, this trend is broken with musicbrainz "The One musicbrainz with the Horse." This light hearted story of a ghost who walks from village to village with his living horse blends spirituality with folklore and perhaps brings the reader in contact with the people of Bolivia better than any other in the compilation. The stories ending the compilation are witty and amusing tales centering on the preparation for, fighting of, and changes (or lack of) brought about by a revolution. "The Cannon of Punta Grande" is an extremely clever and captivating parable of a village that feels it needs a cannon to better defend itself.
