Crimes of the Heart

Five years after Hurricane Camille, the Magrath sisters face a multitude of issues: Babe just shot her husband in the stomach, Meg has retreated from Hollywood by way of a psychiatric ward and Lenny is facing her 30th birthday with a “shrunken ovary” and no romantic prospects. As if this weren’t enough, Old Granddaddy, the family patriarch, is in the hospital with “blood vessels popping in his brain.” Warm-hearted, irreverent, zany and brilliantly imaginative, Crimes of the Heart teems with humanity and humor. A Pulitzer Prize and New York Drama Critics Circle winner.
