SUMMARY:37 Postcards
DESCRIPTION:After years of traveling abroad\, Avery Sutton returns home to Connecticut with his fiancée\, only to discover that his family and childhood home are far from what he remembers. The house is tilted at an odd angle\, the dog has become uncontrollable\, his supposedly deceased grandmother is alive and well\, and his elderly aunt innocently makes a living performing phone sex. Amidst these peculiarities\, Avery must find a way to navigate his eccentric family’s antics. \nDescribed by the Miami Herald as “a master of the hilarious zinger… able to infuse even the most raucous comedy with poignant truths\,” McKeever delivers a riotous yet heartfelt exploration of family and identity. \n
