Other Desert Cities is a family drama infused with humor and wit, political commentary, sharp dialogue and an affecting premise: The grown daughter, Brooke, a writer who has suffered a nervous breakdown, has just written a memoir about her life, her parents and their role in the tragic loss of her brother. But she has not told her parents, Polly and Lyman, of her plans to publish the memoir until the publication date nears while on a Christmas visit back home.
Baitz asks the question whether Brooke has a greater obligation to her family (who saved her during her darkest moments) or to the truth and to her work as a writer.
