In the joint backyards of two widows during the Labor Day holiday in a small Kansas town in the 1950s, the appearance of a handsome outsider upends their life. One house belongs to Flo Owens, who lives there with her two daughters, Madge and Millie, and a schoolteacher boarder. The other house belongs to Helen Potts, who lives with her elderly invalid mother. When the young man named Hal Carter takes a shine to Madge, their sudden passion for each other disrupts the mundane routines of both houses, causing long-dormant desires to explode with ramifications of love and heartbreak that no one expects. This detailed portrait of women in their social environments won William Inge the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1953.
