"Lolo," by Luis Arriola Ayala. Translation by Megan Saltzman
INTRODUCTION: “Lolo” is one of the eight stories from the book Otosan (2015).

Despite the alienating situation and not being able to speak the same language, the two manage to find temporary companionship and ways to resist. This short story is based on the author’s personal experiences working in Japanese factories.
