The Unravelling
The Unravelling
Fin Kennedy's 'The Unravelling' is a dramatic fable about the power of the imagination. A dying mother challenges her three daughters to weave her a great tale, using nothing more than the pieces of cloth in her shop. However, as they begin to weave they realise that the prize is much more than the shop: it is the power to write their own futures. By summoning up worlds around them out of thin air, the daughters discover the power to change the course of their lives, and the shop itself takes on a metaphorical resonance.
