But in 1992, the demon's powers begin to fade. What follows is a desperate weeklong odyssey as Asmodeus ricochets through the bodies of the inhabitants of Santo Domingo's underworld: from Guinea, a young metalhead plotting a warehouse heist, to Mireya, the daughter of a former torturer, to other souls caught in his chaotic orbit. Each possession reveals another layer of a city still reeling from the Balaguer dictatorship. And each new host engenders a surprising tenderness in the demon. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom acclaimed musical artist and author Rita Indiana, \u003ci\u003eAsmodeus\u003c\/i\u003e is written in urgent prose punctuated by original décimas, ten-line rhyming poems drawing from Latin American musical and oral tradition.
