Description
If you live a long life and get to the end of it without ever once feeling crushingly depressed, then you probably haven't been paying attention.
You're seven years old. Mum's in hospital. Dad says she's 'done something stupid'. She finds it hard to be happy. You start a list of everything that's brilliant about the world. Everything worth living for. You leave it on her pillow. You know she's read it because she's corrected your spelling.
A child attempts to ease their mother's depression by creating a list of all the best things in the world. Through adulthood, as the list grows, they learn the deep significance it has on their own life.
From Olivier Award-nominated writer Duncan Macmillan (People, Places and Things), Every Brilliant Thing is a comedy about the lengths we will go for those we love.
This edition was published to coincide with the long-awaited Broadway premiere at the Hudson Theatre with Tony Award winner Daniel Radcliffe.
