Book Description
The reunion of the McGrath sisters in Hazlehurst, Mississippi, is joyful but troubling. Lenny is still unmarried at 30, Meg is recovering from a failed singing career. Babe is out on bail for shooting her husband, and a young lawyer tries to keep her out of jail without falling in love with her. Beth Henley blends comedy and pathos in this Chekhovian story of the sometimes frayed edges of sisterly bonds. --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.
The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature
Drama in three acts by Beth Henley, produced in 1979 and published in 1982. It won the Pulitzer Prize in 1981. Set in a small Mississippi town, the play examines the lives of three quirky sisters who have gathered at the home of the youngest. During the course of the work the sisters unearth grudges, criticize each other, reminisce about their family life, and attempt to understand their mother's suicide years earlier.
