Synopsis

Larry Weller, a young floral designer, is on his honeymoon when he enters his first garden maze. By 1997, Larry has traveled through twisting paths of marriages and careers to become a successful landscape architect. In celebration, he hosts a dinner party that brings him, at 47, to the center of his life. As Larry's story is polished by this Pulitzer Prize-winning author's remarkable talent and conveyed through Alyssa Bresnahan's lyrical reading, it becomes an extraordinary mirror of the last three decades.
