β¦ Synopsis
Helen Moran is thirty-two years old, single, childless, college-educated, and partially employed as a guardian of troubled young people in New York. Sheβs accepting a delivery from IKEA in her shared studio apartment when her uncle calls to break the news: Helenβs adoptive brother is dead.
Helen knows what she must do, and purchases a one-way ticket to Milwaukee. There, as she searches her childhood home and attempts to uncover why someone would choose to die, she will face her estranged family, her brotherβs few friends, and the overzealous grief counselor Chad Lambo; she may also discover what it truly means to be alive.
A bleakly comic debut thatβs by turns poignant, uproariously funny, and unsettling, Sorry to Disrupt the Peace has shades of Bernhard, Beckett and Bowlesβand it announces the singular voice of Patty Yumi Cottrell.
