Sunday Father (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781896239989)

Adam Pettle, one of our finest young playwrights, brings the same warmth and humour that illuminated Zadie's Shoes to his outstanding new play, Sunday Father. Alan and Jed are struggling with what it means to be sons and fathers. After their parents divorced, their father became a "Sunday Father," a role Jed finds himself slipping reluctantly into as his own marriage disintegrates. Meanwhile, Alan, ensconced in the family firm, is having trouble living up to his father's expectations. As the brothers work their way through situations filled with pain and anger, Jed and Alan discover strengths they never knew they had, and a deepening bond that leads them toward hope.
