A dying woman calls her grandson and asks him to write a play about their family. “But I want you to promise me something,” she says. “Make it as bitter and vitriolic as possible.” In this searing, funny, and deeply personal play, the author of Prayer for the French Republicrecreates thirty years of family fights, monstrous behavior, enduring love,and unexpected dishes of home-cooked spaetzle.
