"Today and pre-1492 Spain come into collision in a twist on a Romeo & Juliet story (here Latina Catholic meets devout Muslim) in the highly poetic and beguiling PALOMA by Anne Garc a-Romero." Ross Haarstad, Ithaca Times "At its core, PALOMA is a love story. But Paloma also touches on topics such as religious conflict, coexistence and peace. They are noble ideas presented in cleverly poetic metaphors... Garc a-Romero defies the usual gender dynamic with a female pursuer and a reticent male, and it proves a good decision." Graham Gentz, New Mexico Daily Lobo "The evolving love between Ibrahim and Paloma is tender and true. Likewise, the underlying difficulties are also authentic... This is a powerful play that gets under the skin of religious tensions." Rob Spiegel, Talkin' Broadway
Paloma es la verdadera historia de una joven notable y una relaci n ntima entre madre e hija. Se explora la poderosa conexi n espiritual que compartimos como seres humanos y eso enriquece nuestras vidas cada d a. "Creer es la verdad en una esperanza que nosotros tenemos en la creaci n de la vida." -Paloma Gramaticalmente incorrecta y, al parecer il gico, las palabras escritas por una sensibilidad profunda y una ni a iluminada de ocho a os, en una serie de notas y poemas a su madre, ofrece realmente una respuesta profunda a una de las preguntas m s intrigantes de la vida: Son nuestras vidas una serie de acontecimientos fortuitas, son coincidencias y accidentes, o es que todo sucede por una raz n y con un prop sito definido?
- No quieres aprovechar hermano? No hay nadie. -Me se alaba una caseta de madera, un confesionario. Si bien soy pr cticamente ateo s bien de qu se trata el numerito-. El viaje es m s ligero cuando llevas la conciencia limpia. Su voz modulada, la tranquilidad en su mirada, la sencillez de su ropa, impidi que lo mandara al carajo adem s que no quer a llamar la atenci n. l esperaba mi respuesta sonri ndome como si me conociera de toda la vida. -Le agradezco Padre, pero no creo que eso funcione con alguien como yo. -Todos son iguales ante los ojos de Dios, todos pueden encontrar el perd n a sus pecados. -No creo que los m os tengan perd n. -El perd n te har libre y este se te concede si tu arrepentimiento es genuino. - se es el problema padre, yo no me arrepiento de lo que hice. Mauro Almaz n, es un asesino que busca, oculto en medio de una peregrinaci n, burlar a sus perseguidores. Solo, derrotado, acompa ado de sus recuerdos y atormentado por sus errores trata de ganar tiempo y tomar una decisi n: huir o luchar.
Two people from very different backgrounds and circumstances struggle together to find God in a world of random injustice and human evil. Paloma has suffered bitter poverty and neglect as a child and exploitation and addiction as a teen and an adult. John Levi is a lawyer from a privileged, sheltered home who answers the call of God to pastor an inner-city church. Together, Paloma and John Levi hunger and thirst for justice and mercy for the neighbors of the church and for Paloma and her daughter. At first, Paloma is angered by any talk about the presence and power of a God whom she believes has failed to answer her prayers. John Levi is convinced that God is calling him to rescue Paloma from her plight but crosses a line in protecting her from evil men. Facing the consequences of his actions, John Levi struggles with the limitations imposed upon his hunger for justice by the Way of Jesus. Both Paloma and John Levi transcend the crisis to find a new faith.

She was very elegant and shy. She covered her face with her long black hair. A sparkle of her eyes came through, but there was no glance in them. She walked into the room through the door like walking on a stage. Every step seemed to be idealized. It was like behind such a delicate face would be nothing. Nothing more than a black hole, that sucks all emotions. Every day for eight years she visited her mother at the hospital, and so probably she lost in those years all emotions. Who could know? though Hannah, the nurse. Paloma never spoke about any feelings. Everybody around her just assumed that she had felt. But nobody questioned, what kind of feeling those were.
Psychologie ist ein faszinierendes Fach. Noch faszinierender ist es, die Grenze zwischen Realit t und Fantasie zu beschreiten, die die Menschheit in ihrer Evolution begleitet. Paloma ist eine durch die dominante Pers nlichkeit ihrer Mutter gepr gte Frau, die sich ohne Hilfe durch das Leben k mpfen muss. Wirklich allein? Hat sie nicht doch einen unbekannten Begleiter?
