“The Subject was Roses is a deeply moving Pulitzer Prize story of three strangers–a mother, a father, and a son. After three years in the Army, Timmy Cleary has returned home with a better understanding of his parents’ problems. A lifetime of minor slights and misunderstandings have grown into an impenetrable wall of alienation between his mother and his father; a barrier neither is willing to break–until, that is, Timmy gets involved. Offering a simple act of affection, Timmy elicits a complex emotional response, one that will either bring his family together or completely tear it apart.” -MGM
