Eddie is an honest, compassionate man who finds himself, at the age of thir ty-eight, with a wife, a child, and three dollars. How did he get that way He is a university graduate. He married an attractive intelligent woman, h is lover from university days. He is a good husband, father and son. At any other time the world would smile on him. But this is the nineties, and the world values other things. Angry, yet full of unexpected humour, "Three Do llars" chronicles a modern breach in the social contract, and the legacy of Thatcherism and Reaganomics and its effect on people and relationships. It is about a man's attempt to retain his humanity, his family and his sense of humour in grim and pitiless times; about what happens to people in our b rave new world of downsizing, outsourcing and privatising.
