Un volumen que reúne tanto la Mansión Araucaíma como los Cuadernos del Palacio Negro. En la primera narración, cinco personas encuentran refugio en una mansión en el trópico. La trama los lleva a buscar liberarse de sus pasados -recuerdos reprimidos y frustraciones-, aun cuando se encuentran atrapados en sus propios miedos y deseos. Su frágil convivencia se ve transformada por la llegada de una hermosa joven. En esta obra, Mutis buscaba recrear, en un escenario tropical, la violencia y el misterio de las novelas góticas inglesas de finales del siglo XVIII. En la segunda narración reunida, escrita durante su reclusión en el penal de Lecumberri (el "palacio negro") en la Ciudad de México, estos cuadernos son testimonio de una experiencia traumática. Mutis reunió cinco cuadros significativos de sus quince meses de prisión: cinco visiones que abandonan la estructura tradicional del diario personal y su supuesta relación con la realidad.

A volume that gathers both Araucaíma Mansion and Black Palace's Notebooks. In the first narration, five people find refuge in a mansion in the tropics. The plot takes them to seek to free themselves of their pasts -repressed memories and frustrations-, even as they find themselves trapped in their own fears and desires. Their fragile coexistence is transformed by the arrival of a beautiful young woman. In this work, Mutis sought to recreate, in a tropical setting, the violence and mystery of late-eighteenth-century English Gothic novels. In the second narration gathered, written during his incarceration in Lecumberri prison (the "black palace") in Mexico City, these notebooks are a testimony to a traumatic experience. Mutis gathered together five significant tableaux from his fifteen months of imprisonment: five visions that abandon the traditional structure of the personal diary and its supposed relationship with reality.
