I Killed My Father

Irving Diptera

'This is the story of how I killed my father. Mostly.' Between demeaning beer auditions and his mother’s relentless calls, Irving performs a bitingly funny, "mostly true" autopsy on his own masculinity. From the salt-aired trauma of Veracruz to the grit of Mexico City, he dissects a paternal lineage of absentee biological fathers and the ghosts of men who only knew how to leave. A visceral, darkly comedic excavation of what we inherit, what we kill, and the high cost of a graceful exit.
