More about the book

Set in Puerto Rico amid the statehood debate, a young woman navigates love while living with her 105-year-old great-grandmother, who grapples with her own past. The play intertwines themes of love, loss, and identity, highlighting the stark language barrier between the two women. José Rivera's work blends magical realism with political commentary, reflecting on Puerto Rican independence through rich imagery and poetic dialogue. This deeply human exploration resonates universally, challenging audiences to confront their own perspectives on self-determination.
