ABSENCE (EL AUSENTE)

by Victor Hugo Rascón Banda

translated by Caridad Svich

Three generations of a Mexico City family endure the absence of a son and husband who have left for the United States. The epic journey of the migrant northward too often overshadows the stories of the loved ones left behind– this play tells their story.
