Book by Jon Robin Baitz

Other Desert Cities is a sharp and emotionally charged family drama set during a holiday gathering in Palm Springs. When a daughter returns home with a memoir that reveals long-buried family secrets, political differences and painful memories erupt, forcing the family to confront truth, loyalty, and the past. Both witty and deeply moving, the play explores how the stories we tell shape the people we love.
