New York in 1981. The Normal Heart is "An important document of the early history of the AIDS crisis—with, unfortunately, no less urgency today—it is a searching, often witty, and rousingly humane drama." John Simon, NY Magazine#2Barefoot Boy With Shoes On by Edwin Sanchez 11/26 - 12/18/05 Rosario Cortez lives with his father and grandfather in a single room occupancy hotel and supports them all by working as a window washer. His girlfriend is pregnant and he is willing to do anything to provide a better life for "his son." Can a Puerto Rican window washer find his "happily ever after?" "BAREFOOT BOY WITH SHOES ON (By the author of TRAFFICKING IN BROKEN HEARTS) is . . . a touching drama that's worthy of attention..." David Kaufman, NYDaily News
