Description "A middle-aged couple are informed of their daughter's suicide. The parent's response is baffling, almost repugnant. Their concern is only for themselves; they do not grieve for their daughter, Felicity, but reminisce abouth their own lost youth. The parents then engage in the surreal exercise of composing their own version of Felicity's suicide note."
