How I Learned to Drive

This 1997 Pulitzer Prize-winning memory play follows the story of a young woman as she comes of age in rural Maryland during the 1960s and 1970s. In a series of nonlinear flashbacks, by turns funny and harrowing, she retraces her driving lessons with a charismatic older man, which extend beyond simply learning the rules of the road. A versatile Greek chorus provides context, atmosphere, and dysfunctional family dynamics.
