Episode 16 - Miriam's Flowers by Migdalia Cruz

  • Résumé

  • How do you cope with grief? This question haunts every character in Migdalia Cruzâ s â Miriamâ s Flowers.â Itâ s the 1970â s in the South Bronx and a Puerto Rican family has just suffered the loss of 7-year-old Puli who was struck by a train while retrieving his baseball. Miriam, his 16-year-old half-sister, turns her sorrow into a crusade to take away Puli's pain by suffering her own. Her mother Delfina and Puliâ s father Nando find their own ways of failing to fill the emptiness Puli has left in their lives. Underpinned by the music of the Jackson 5 and Eddie Palmieri, a family well-versed in pain, must grapple with their inability to move on from tragedy. Topics include: complications from grief, self-harm, socio-economic disparity, sexual awakening, isolation, and the influence of faith.
