Gladys in Wonderland: Eighty-seven-year-old Gladys is munching donuts, reading obituaries, and wisecracking about the humorous incongruities of life, when she receives a visit from Mort, a man in a white suit, claiming to be the Angel of Death. Gladys, who is rather enjoying her life, stubbornly resists being whisked off into the great unknown. So, Mort gives her a bit of time to reconsider and—invisible to all but Gladys—trades quips and wry commentary with her as she receives a parade of oblivious visitors, self-absorbed family members, and a parrot! What will the irrepressible Gladys decide?
