Description On a stark stage, two people enact the small forces of daily life in the suburbs, and the larger tragedies surrounding the death of a child...the author Manuel Aston, captures well the plight of fundamentally decent people - crippled by life and the expectations of family, living, in what Thoreau called "lives of quiet desperation".
