To whom it may concern

Hardev Dange is having a bad year. The bank is going to foreclose on his house. One fickle daughter is on the verge of marriage; the other, who is deaf, is working at a tattoo and body-piercing parlour. His son is studying curses and has fallen in love with another male grad student. And, because he is confined to a wheelchair, Hardev is dependent on his kleptomaniac homecare worker. An intriguing multicultural re-telling of "King Lear."
