The Knot of the Heart (Paperback)

""Why has this happened to us? Things like this don't happen to families like ours."
"Beautiful and privileged, Lucy is enjoying a burgeoning career in television. But her social drug habit has become a serious addiction, casting a dark shadow over her future happiness. As her charmed life begins to slip away Lucy comes to realize that the devoted support of her family does not come without a price.
With themes of love, family and addiction, "The Knot of the Heart "explores the creeping onset of self-destruction beneath a veneer of respectability. Full of David Eldridge's trademark lyricism within everyday family life and interaction, this is a play where emotions are high and relationships are sensitively written. Ultimately hopeful and redemptive, "The Knot of the Heart" is atmospheric and poetic without undermining the all-too-believable characters' realism.
