Ljubav je slomljen zub u gladnim ustima. Ljubav je tronogo pseto. Ona je poput tanga koji plešu dvoje bogalja.
Tako piše Egon Wolff, suvremeni čileanski dramatičar koji punu afiramciju doživljava nakon pada Pinochetova režima. Ljubav je u ovom komadu promatrana kroz prizmu odnosa dvaju likova različitih društvenih slojeva, gdje različiti socijalni i društveni identiteti uvjetuju različite koncepte ljubavi. Slučajan susret i gesta ljubaznosti prema strancu uvod su u niz događaja koji vode prema kraju svijeta kakvim ga znamo i u kojemu ljudski neuspjeh postaje slikom globalne katastrofe. Riječ je o dramskom tekstu koji spajajući realizam i simbolizam te sociologiju i mitologiju daje lijepu i potresnu sliku uništenja unutarnjeg krajolika žudnje.

Love is a broken tooth in the hungry mouth. Love is a three-legged dog. It is like a tango danced by two cripples.
These are the words of Egon Wolff, a contemporary Chilean playwright, who became fully recognized after the fall of Pinochet’s regime. In this play love is seen through a prism of relations between two characters belonging to different classes, in which different social identities create different ideas of love. Accidental encounter and a nice gesture to a stranger introduce us into a series of events leading towards the end of the world such as we know it, in which human failure becomes an image of global disaster. Joining realism with symbolism and sociology with mythology, this dramatic text gives a lovely and moving glimpse into destruction of inner regions of desire.
