title: A Season In Strength Wrigley
author: McCormack, John
description: Wrigley is funny, sad, and poignant, right down to her name: Wrigley Strawberry Field. We catch her life over six days, as she reconciles the fact that she is dying. We see the strength of a young woman whose life was a chaotic menagerie: raised by hippy parents, childhood tattoo, first date, working in a crematorium, marriage, children, divorce (her husband was in bed with a waitress during the reception), her success as an artist, etc. And with the support of her neighbor and her attorney (Biscuit Grivet), how she tells her two young children that mommy is going away. But … it’s her story. Let’s let her tell it.
