The Fall of Heartless Horse

The Fall of Heartless Horse is a postmodern multigenerational family drama that is dark, hilarious, moving and wildly original. By turns lyric, comic, tragic and absurd, it deals with greed, inheritance, heroism, internecine intrigue, capitalism, sex, and the intertwining of public and private history.
