A Solid Home

A Solid Home
    By: Elena Garro
The short play consists of a family that is buried together.  They talk about the life they lived before they died and the life they living now as dead people.  They explain to Lydia a 32 year old girl who just passed away that she has to wait. She’s confused as to what and why they have to wait.  They then continue to explain to her that she would be able to see everything except her home , they also explain to her that she would become different things and object and until she doesn’t learn to be everything she won’t be able to go to the other world with god.  Lydia says she want a solid home but she doesn’t realize till the end that she does have a solid home, her tomb.
