Return to Marietta

By Dee Thompson

It's 1933. America is in the depths of the Great Depression. Lillian Taylor, 8 months pregnant, broke, and with a four-year-old son to support, sets off alone on desperate drive from Marietta, Georgia to New York City, to try and persuade her husband Will to return home after being away for months. Will pitched for the Philadelphia Athletics until a scandal cost him his major league baseball career in 1923. Now he is unemployed, broke, far from home -- and haunted by the past.

Everything is at stake for Lillian in 1933; her marriage, her children, possibly even her life. Can Lillian get Will to come home? Can the man in Marietta who is obsessed with Lillian succeed in getting her away from her husband? Can Will ever regain his major league baseball career?

Return to Marietta is about love, justice, family, baseball, and the longing for home.
