The Family Reunion Verse Drama

A modern verse play dealing with the problem of man's guilt and his need for expiation through his acceptance of responsibility for the sin of humanity. "What poets and playwrights have been fumbling at in their desire to put poetry into drama and drama into poetry has here been realized.... This is the finest verse play since the Elizabethans" (New York Times).

But what happens when a family’s ancient guilt demands a modern sacrifice?

• Family Secrets: Harry returns to the family estate of Wishwood seeking peace, only to find the ghosts of his parents’ past are more terrifying than his own.
• Greek Tragedy Themes: Haunted by the spectral Eumenides, Harry must confront a curse that stretches back for generations, turning a polite reunion into a primal scene of judgment.
• Modernist Literature: A landmark play from a Nobel Prize winning author, where poetic verse explores the dark corridors of the human psyche with searing intensity.
• A Haunting Country House Setting: Beneath the veneer of upper-class civility, unspoken horrors fester, and the line between sanity and spiritual torment dissolves within the walls of Wishwood.
