Ernestine Ashworth spends her 17th birthday agonizing over her insignificance in the universe. Soon enough, it’s her 18th birthday. Even sooner, her 41st. Her 70th. Her 101st.
Beloved for its ability to feel both universal and incredibly personal at the same time, BIRTHDAY CANDLES is an “epic and beautifully written” drama (New York Daily News) that travels cross five generations, an infinity of dreams, and one cake baked over a century.
