Description

Sam, a brilliant surgeon, is devastated when his longtime nurse dies on the operating table due to his error of judgment. Taking his family to visit his revivalist minister father, Sam finds that his father either cannot or will not help Sam with his tormenting guilt. "In essence, the play becomes an eloquent, deeply felt debate about the conflict between science and religion"--Page [4] of cover. The play ends with a tentative reconciliation of father and son, each adjusting somewhat.
