“ Aw, man!!! Gonzalez takes a great “what if?” and performs a miracle: a epistolary monologue that tells the lifelong story two brothers while imagining an impending title fight, somehow making it all unfold with the intensity and emotion of a 15-round championship match. He expertly weaves the past and the future into the now, when the stakes, physical and emotional, could not be higher. Then, at the apex of a hypothetical altercation, he hits the audience where we live. I cried like I’d been gut-punched. Give Gonzalez the championship belt and raise his hand in glory! ”
