Rosemary's lover of eight years has committed suicide. Now, her family has descended upon her house in Maine to console her. But an addled mother who plays with dolls, a moody 300-pound gay uncle, and a sister who zooms through husbands are not Rosemary's idea of a life-affirming support group. Told with poignancy and humor, this is a story of love, loss, redemption and renewal.
