Crimes of the Heart

Meet the McGrath sisters – Lenny, Meg, and Babe. They are reunited at their childhood home in Hazlehurst, Mississippi, as they await news about their ailing grandfather and the possible incarceration of the youngest, newly rebellious Babe, who shot her abusive husband. The trio experiences two hectic days of conflict, personal strife, and revelations as they struggle to repair a family reputation stained by a history of adultery, scandal, and tragedy. Imaginative and insightful, as well as humorous and heartwarming, Beth Henley’s Crimes of the Heart is a Pulitzer Prize winning masterpiece.
