Finger Painting in a Murphy Bed
Author(s):
David L. Paterson
Myra Smuldanski, a hardworking secretarial temp from Queens, has done the unconscionable-in her brother Ludlow's opinion: she has accepted a date with a dashing young executive. Not prone to dating because of priorities involved in caring for young Ludlow, Myra is taking one last swing at romance. For twenty-four hours, a comedic tug of war rages in her cramped apartment. Ludlow, an aspiring finger painter who suffers manic episodes, is determined to destroy the budding relationship that threatens his exclusive hold on his sister's love. Reginald must fight for Myra's affection and ultimately Ludlow discovers that acceptance affords him a measure of dignity. "Wholeheartedly recommended. . . . Truly moving . . . [and] consistently witty, often brilliantly so."-Garden Grove Journal. "Hilarious . . . [and] surprisingly touching. "--Orange County Register.
