Synopsis

A post-modern generational family drama that is dark, hilarious, moving, this wildly original narrative deals with greed, inheritance, heroism, internecine intrigue, capitalism, sex, and the intertwining of public and private history. Kinney's startling, inventive debut, which draws on traditions of both poetry and prose, and pushes the envelope in both genres, has been compared with the works of Lewis Carroll and Anne Carson, and evokes qualities of opera, theatre, soap opera, epic, and melodrama as well.
