Leanora, the central character, was placed
in the nursing home by her daughter, Ruth
six months ago. She has a strong personality
and is out of place in this refined atmosphere.
She has made herself unpopular and now moves
are afoot to get her to leave.
She is terminally ill, and heavy doses of
Morphine are clearly responsible for her sometimes
irrational behaviour. However, in her fading
world, there is still much lucidity.
Leanora seeks support from her family but
there is a deep rift between her, and her
daughter Ruth, and this has also affected
her relationship with her granddaughter, Julie.
Forced into a corner by all around her, Leanora
decides it is time to reveal the 'truth' behind
the rift. |
