The way she spoke (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780573709203)

A haunting and theatrical one-woman play, The Way She Spoke travels from a New York stage to the treacherous streets of Ju疵ez, Mexico, where thousands of women have been murdered in an epidemic of violence that has yet to stop. Written by Isaac Gez based on his intimate interviews, the play is a raw and riveting exploration of responsibility: one playwright's journey to give voice to a city of women silenced by violence, fear and a world that has turned a deaf ear to their stories.

"An act of bearing witness... an aching, outraged work of vigil, protest and inquiry." - The New York Times

"Isaac Gomez has drawn from interviews with real women to expose just how terrifying life in Ju疵ez has become. It is riveting theater... Gomez's script is a brilliant, tragic book of the dead." - New York Theatre Guide

"At first, the terrific solo show The Way She Spoke seems simple... Gomez's play picks its way carefully among genres: It's half memoir, half fiction, half documentary, half memorial. That's too many halves-there's too much play here. But that's because there is no appropriate response other than surfeit of anguish, of pity, of rage." - TimeOut NY
