It’s Christmas Eve in Palm Springs. Novelist Brooke Wyeth is back home after a six-year absence. But the reunion is about to become complicated when Brooke announces she is writing a tell-all memoir that will expose the most painful chapter of the family’s history which could destroy all that the family holds dear. Pairing his writing of intense tragedy with sharp wit, “Mr. Baitz makes sure our sympathies keep shifting among the members of the wounded family portrayed here. Every one of them emerges as selfish, loving, cruel, compassionate, irritating, charming and just possibly heroic.” —NY Times.
