Bits And Pieces Book

THE STORIES: In BITS AND PIECES, a brilliant young professor dies and wills virtually all of his organs to be transplanted - an act that leaves his widow perplexed and unsatisfied, especially at the funeral for his few remains. She bribes the doctor for a list of recipients, and sets out on a quest for the bits and pieces of her husband, and of their life together. (5 men, 4 women, several roles can be doubled.) BREAKFAST, LUNCH, AND DINNER. Richard and Barbara are at a crisis point in their young marriage and, without really meaning to, find themselves in a decisive confrontation. The problem is compounded by the provocative presence of Barbara's attractive and unmarried sister, Emily, who is openly drawn to Richard. In a series of terse, revealing scenes, all pretense is stripped away until the three come to accept the truth - about themselves and each other - and to face the terrible loss to which events have brought them. (1 man, 2 women.)
