The Gathered Leaves
About this book
The Pennington family haven't been in the same room together for seventeen years. But on the eve of William's seventy-fifth birthday, all three generations gather, hoping that the mistakes of the past can be consigned to history.
An errant daughter, an autistic son, and a second son that could never just grasp the nettle – William's children have always been a disappointment to him. With long-held resentments rising to the surface, and new problems unexpectedly presenting themselves, a family reconciliation may be some way off. But William knows he is running out of time.
A moving, poignant and funny family drama, Andrew Keatley's The Gathered Leaves was first staged at Park Theatre, London, in 2015. This new edition was published alongside Park's revival in 2025, directed by Adrian Noble.
