When a young man cycles across America to arrive in New York, he decides to visit his feisty, aging grandmother with whom he shares idealistic notions about the world. She becomes a sounding board for his recent tragedy and fraught personal relationships, bringing her worldly wisdom while she struggles with her aging body. They ultimately support each other in their mutual losses. This is a beautiful and poignant insight into life's struggles, seen from early and late in the journey, and the powerof cross-generational support and healing. 4,000 Miles was a finalist for the 2013 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
