DESCRIPTION:
(from Amazon's web site, January 2019) Genre-bending comedy SEA OAK features Aunt Bernie, a meek, working-class woman who dies tragically in a home invasion. Compelled by sheer force of dissatisfaction, she comes back from the dead full of rage, determined to get the life she never had. She proceeds to inflict a range of demands on her immediate family who live in a low-end subsidized hellhole of a housing complex called Sea Oak. SEA OAK is created by George Saunders, 2017 Man Booker Prize winner for LINCOLN IN THE BARDO. |
