  Inspired by real events, Affections is the story of the eccentric, fascinating Ertl clan, headed by the egocentric and extraordinary Hans, once the cameraman for the Nazi propagandist Leni Riefenstahl. Shortly after the end of World War II, Hans and his family flee to Bolivia to start over. There, the ever-restless Hans decides to embark on an expedition in search of the fabled lost Inca city of Paitití, enlisting two of his daughters to join him on his outlandish quest into the depths of the Amazon, with disastrous consequences. 
   
   
   
  Set against the backdrop of the both optimistic and violent 1950s and 1960s, Affections traces the Ertls's slow and inevitable breakdown through the various erratic trajectories of each family member: Hans's undertakings of colossal, foolhardy projects and his subsequent spectacular failures; his daughter Monika, heir to his adventurous spirit, who joins the Bolivian Marxist guerrillas and becomes known as "Che Guevara’s avenger"; and his wife and two younger sisters left to pick up the pieces in their wake. In this short but powerful work, Hasbún weaves a masterfully layered tale of how a family's voyage of discovery ends up eroding the affections that once held it together.

  It's 1895 and fourteen year old Hannah Brandt struggles with the harsh realities of life on a new Nebraska homestead. Her imagination is captured by a wild filly that she ultimately loses, but the door to her destiny opens. Three years later she enters the first Cheyenne Frontier Days rodeo, where she wins a relay race and begins a quest to tackle the ultimate horse sport, saddle bronc riding. She takes a new name, Sunny Gale, and pursues a career in rodeo, much to the disgust of her young husband and Victorian-era mother. With every move, she defies convention as the drive to compete takes over her life, leaving everything else behind, including husbands and children. Sunny Gale is a story of the social mores of the early 20th century  and of a woman determined to wrest free of them no matter how high the personal cost or where her choices will lead.
