The Book of Esther by Leanna Brodie, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

It is June 1981: the farm debt crisis. Pride Toronto’s first parade. Everything is changing, including fifteen-year-old Esther, who runs away to the city to escape the family farm. With the help of a brash young hustler and a gay activist who shelters street kids, she confronts her conservative Christian parents—farmers on the brink of financial ruin—and begins to find her way home. Acclaimed playwright Leanna Brodie excels with this heart-warming coming-of-age—and coming-out—drama. Cast of two women and three men. | The Book of Esther by Leanna Brodie, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
