"The writing is at its most revealing when Aguirre shows us how- the young Carmen's mind struggles to process adult-scale horror ... Going into an evening like this, you might expect sentimentalization of pain or oversimplification of politics ... what "The Trigger" offers is so strange that it has the ring of truth, and it is never simplistic. Often, though, it is beautiful."

Reseña del editor

"When I was thirteen I was raped. I was with my younger cousin at the time, and neither of us ever saw the rapist—a gun was held to the backs of our heads and if we turned around he'd kill us. He only had one bullet left, he said, so he'd have to chop up my cousin while I watched, then shoot me. By the time the attack was over and we were left lying in the mud, we were both different people."

The Trigger is for every human being who has ever been sexually violated and lives with that experience in their core, surfacing again in all of their subsequent intimate relationships. The Trigger deals with the ripples of this kind of violation.
