Summary note
This is a collection of six short plays by contemporary Hispanic authors living in the United States. While the authors represent several Hispanic cultures, and their works range from realistic to avant-garde, the plays examine the themes of politics, religion, and family within the context of a common heritage. Each play is preceded by an autobiographical presentation by the playwright. The volume offers an up-to-date example of the electric themes and technical complexity of writing for the stage in English by Hispanic authors. ISBN 0-930452-68-2 (pbk.): $12.95.
