The Queen of Kansas

"Speaking in her own voice, The Queen of Kansas is the story of a young woman setting out to conquer her world in the late 1930's. Poised for college and a career on the New York stage, Charlotte Albert sets it all aside-family, friends, career-to elope with a dashing, British-born actor. Played out in the years immediately preceding, during and after World War II, Charlotte's story resonates with anyone who has struggled with how to be a good person, a good spouse and a good parent but who ends up making the occasional hash of it. In short, most of us."
