An absentee father needles his adult daughter for details about her newly commissioned play when he fears it'll cast him in an unflattering light. A man finds - and loses - love when he meets and marries a recently widowed Ukrainian immigrant. An actor, fazed out of Hollywood for his Communist ties during the Red Scare era, tries to share a meaningful moment with his son. These are just a few of the characters who populate these incredibly skilful stories, cutting a wide swath through the fabric of time and place, exploring different people from different cultures painfully human in their joys, desires, tragedies and heartaches.
