First Breeze of Summer, The

A complex and emotional drama, Leslie Lee's acclaimed play deals with the conflicts between a stern, hard-working father and his two discontented sons. It also tells the story of the man's now elderly mother who recalls, through flashbacks, her youthful affairs with three different men who loved and abandoned her.
