Frank and April Wheeler are stuck in a typical suburban lifestyle in Connecticut around the early 1960s. Their solution to escape the mundane? Travel to France and live out their dreams there. That decision brings peace and excitement, at first. However, little by little their dreams slowly get more and more unrealistic.
In the midst of their realities, April and Frank fight and argue and make choices that end up unraveling their entire lives. This Richard Yates novel is about a young couple, but it could be any young couple, anywhere, at any time. Join us on this episode as we dive deep into the lives and heads of the Wheelers.
