COPY LINK URL ON DESCRIPTION
The spellbinding last full-length play produced during the
author's lifetime is now published for the first time. Christmas
1982: Cornelius and Bella McCorkle of Pascagoula,
Mississippi, return home one midnight in a thunderstorm from
the Memphis funeral of their older son to a house and a life
literally falling apart--daughter Joanie is in an insane asylum
and their younger son Charlie is upstairs having sex with his
pregnant, holy-roller girlfriend as the McCorkles enter.
Cornelius, who has political ambitions and a litany of health
problems, is trying to find a large amount of moonshine money
his gentle wife Bella has hidden somewhere in their collapsing
house, but his noisy efforts are disrupted by a stream of
remarkable characters, both living and dead. While Williams
often used drama to convey hope and desperation in human
hearts, it was through this dark, expressionistic comedy, which
he called a Southern gothic spook sonata, that he was best
able to chronicle his vision of the fragile state of our world.
