Vividly written. . . . An intriguing and evocative drama."—The San Francisco Chronicle, on Brainpeople"Mr. Rivera's intimate play . . . uses historical fact as a frame to pose intriguing questions about what might have happened."—The New York Times, on School of the AmericasThree new works from José Rivera, a writer known for his lush language, open heart, and stylistic flirting with the surreal. Boleros for the Disenchanted is the moving story of the playwrights own parents: their sweet courtship in 1950s Puerto Rico, and then forty years later in more difficult times in America.

Also included is his one-act penned in protest of California's Proposition 8, Pablo and Andrew at the Altar of Words.José Rivera's works include the plays References to Salvador Dali Make Me Hot, Marisol, Cloud Tectonics, and Sueno (an adaptation of Life Is a Dream), as well as the Oscar-nominated screenplay to The Motorcycle Diaries.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
