Details

October 1972. In a city somewhere in the American Midwest, Carla is trying to rebuild her life. Her husband is gone - killed in Vietnam. Now, under the watchful eye of her mother in law, she must raise her young son while trying to avoid the morbid sympathy of her local community. But everything changes when an unexpected and mysterious soldier arrives on her doorstep.

Nick Hern Books publishes Purple Heart alongside the UK premiere of this early work from Bruce Norris, the Pulitzer Prize winning writer of CLYBOURNE PARK. Punctuated with sharp wit, Purple Heart is a deeply moving meditation on love, loss and grief.
