Just read Heroes & Saints--really specific real. Loved the use of naturalistic multilingual dialogue!

I only read Heroes and Saints in this book, but I actually enjoyed the storyline more than I thought I would. The only thing that was challenging was how the play is partially in Spanish and coming from someone who doesn't know any Spanish, this was not easy. However, I could follow along pretty well with what the other characters were saying.

Though the way Moraga writes portrays this play in a surreal setting, the play is real in its portrayal. It's gruesome, but this is a reality that is happening in our country. I would love to see a production of "Heroes and Saints" and explore more of Moraga's work.

Weirdest freaking play I've ever read. I don't understand.
