Yonkers, 1942. Jay and Arty's mother is gone, their father deep in debt, so the boys get dropped at Grandma's apartment above the candy store for ten months. Grandma Kurnitz is terrifying - German immigrant who raised her own children on steel and silence. Aunt Bella still lives there, childlike and starving for love her mother refuses to give. Neil Simon's Pulitzer winner about what happens when a family locks its heart away - funny, wrenching, and impossible to shake.
