Published by Samuel French Inc

Standing room only audiences cheered at the curtain call on West 54th Street in New York for this emotionally charged drama about a middle class black family coping with a shameful tragedy

It is the story of a decent mother who refuses to believe her three daughters when they tell her that her boyfriend is sexually molesting them until the youngest dies from a botched abortion touches a nerve that crosses class and cultural experiences

"Cyclonic action from angry, tearful parental outbursts to almost knock about farce a sometimes hilarious, often searing panorama of black urban America in the 1990s.... Everybody identifies with the characters" ~ N.Y. Post
