"The Gin Game" by D.L. Coburn
Weller Martin is playing solitaire on the porch of a seedy nursing home. Enter Fonsia Dorsey, a prim, self-righteous woman. They discover they both dislike the home and enjoy the game of gin, so they begin to play. As they play, intimate details reveal themselves, and what follows was called by The New York Times "The closest thing the theatre offers to a duel at 10 paces". Winner of the 1978 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. (Contains adult language).
