of his master Don Juan and hints at his devilish origin. From that moment on, the hero becomes a conduit between two realities, and his consciousness balances between the 20th and 17th centuries. And all of this is because of Don Juan. He is mortally wounded but cannot die. His soul periodically inhabits the hero. Under the spell of the obsession, a novel within a novel is born. In it, Don Juan reveals the secret of his fall and tells about the true reason for the Commander's murder.
