"My Broken Language" este o memorie scrisă de Quiara Alegría Hudes, în care autoarea își explorează propria identitate și moștenirea culturală în contextul familiei sale portoricane și a istoriei lor complexe. Cartea urmărește povestea lui Hudes de la copilărie și adolescență în Philadelphia, unde a crescut într-o familie cu rădăcini portoricane, până la maturitatea sa ca dramaturg și artistă. Hudes împărtășește nu numai poveștile și experiențele sale personale, ci și povestea mamei sale, care a emigrat din Puerto Rico în Statele Unite și a luptat pentru a-și păstra limba și cultura într-un mediu nou și adesea ostil.

Descriere

"Quiara Hudes is in her own league. Her sentences will take your breath away. How lucky we are to have her telling our stories." - Lin-Manuel Miranda From the Pulitzer-prize winning playwright of IN THE HEIGHTS comes a spellbinding coming-of-age story, and a vibrant and life-affirming celebration of the women who guide us. Born in Philadelphia to a Jewish father and an enigmatic Puerto Rican mother, Quiara Alegría Hudes had a love-and-trouble-filled upbringing, haunted by the unspoken, untold family secrets of the barrio. In the face of real-world wounds, the powerful, Orisha-like women of her family possessed a strength, joy and sensuality that left a young Quiara awe-struck. She vowed to tell their stories. But confronted by a world that treated her like an outsider, Quiara knew she must find a new language, one which reflected the multiple cultures that raised this Puerto Rican child of North Philly. Written and spoken, English and Spanish, sacred and profane - as her search for a way to share her family's story deepened, an artist emerged, ready to speak her truth. An inspired exploration of home, family and memory, My BROKEN LANGUAGE is the story of a sharp-eyed observer who finds her voice and learns to boldly tell the stories that only she can tell.
