An adaptation of Bertolt Brecht’s one-act play The Jewish Wife (1937), Fabiola Carranza’s The Mexican Husband follows the events of a husband’s final night at home with his wife in Los Angeles before running for the Mexican border. A heartfelt account of the ways in which exclusionary immigration policies play out, The Mexican Husband asks questions about the state of humanity in an era of immigration enforcement, border walls, and enduring prejudices — both visible and invisible.

Bilingual edition in English and Spanish.
