Quesadillas
by Juan Pablo Villalobos, Rosalind Harvey, Neel Mukherjee
While his father practises the art of the insult, Orestes’ mother prepares hundreds of quesadillas for their seven children. She insists they are middle-class, but Orestes is not convinced. And after another fraudulent election and the disappearance of his younger brothers, Orestes goes off on an adventure and learns much about families, truth and bovine artificial insemination.
Anything goes in Villalobos’ madcap Mexican satire of politics, big families and what it means to be middle-class.
