Martín, son of a Spanish knight and a Panamanian mulatto, was born in Lima in 1579. With his father, already governor of Guayaquil, and a promising future within reach, he decides to enter the convent of Santo Domingo. There he becomes Fray Escoba, a nickname he receives for his obsession with sweeping and sweeping tirelessly, while laughing happily.
