“Heartbreak Soup” Could Be My Favorite Movie
“Sopa de Gran Pena” by Gilbert Hernandez (or in English “Heartbreak Soup”) is my favorite short story/graphic story/story that was put on paper. ...
Pipo, devastated by Manuel’s cheating ways, makes the heartbreak soup from the title for Tip-in Tip-in. The soup ‘helps the heart grow to stone. ... How the soup can mend a broken heart. ... The way they all meet up, not like gangsters or movie cholos, but like young kids who wanted to explore and play games like soccer. ... ‘Heartbreak Soup’ explores the themes of death, love, innocence, community and the cyclical nature of humanity better than any other piece of Chicano literature I’ve ever come across.
