“Book Descriptions: In 2020 near the United States–Mexico border, a family from 1979 drives back towards Chile from Canada. As time and space shift and blend, the family experiences a series of encounters ranging from poignant to comical to fantastical. Encircled by past, present, and future, their journey becomes a collective vision that immerses us all in the compelling experiences of people attempting to cross or guard borders – and walls.
An enthralling mix of dark comedy and magic realism, Anywhere but Here, by celebrated actor, author, and playwright Carmen Aguirre, is an unabashed celebration of Latinx culture and a virtuoso exposition of the costs of exile and the true nature of home in an unstable world.” DRIVE
